Well i dont think so. but you can die from a huge infection. abscess teethe could give you an infection if your not careful. |

Yes, in theory. If the bacteria inside the abscess gets into your blood stream, it can make you sick. If enough of it gets into your system, and it goes untreated, there is a chance of death due to severe bacterial infection. |

DIE OF PAIN. it might spread too. :'( |

Hey U, Yeah U..Get over here
 |
if it gets super infected (and abscess tooth is alrdy infected) and turns into gang green. you can die of any infection that is not treated. infection is an overgrowth of bad bacteria.....bacteria is a living organism that multiplies very fast. untreated and yes you can die over a very long and excruiating period of time. |

my mom works at a dentist office, and my husband got one a while back, so your answer is yes, i may take a while for the infection to spread, but it can turn to gangrene and kill you. better go have it taking out, you will need to get a root canal if there is nothing left for them to grasp a hold of. |

bad teeth has been linked to severe heart conditions. i know that sounds crazy but it's true. ask any dr. or dentist |

Yes you sure can,
If it gets into your blood stream it more then likely will travel up to the brain, since your mouth is so close. There are several cases you can find regaurding this. It is a serious thing to play around with a dental abcess, so see someone immediatly. |

yes but it's rare, your nerves connected to your tooth can become gangrenous(gangrene) and if not treated immediately can spread like bush fire and WILL kill you. if not gangrene infection from the pus in your tooth can also do the job |

You can if you leave it for long enough, it is an infection in your head, a really bad infection, not far from you brain. |

You sure can if not treated..The poison inside a abscess can travel directly to your brain. |

You could if it goes untreated, it would be the infection that could kill you or cause other untreatable damages. |

|
yes you can. the infection can travel thru your body to your heart or brain and is much harder to get rid of at that point.
Take whatever med your doc prescribes!!! |

Yes. When your tooth is abscessed, it means it's infected. An infection is a bunch of nasty bacteria swimming around in your body. If you do not get the abcess taken care of, that infection will grow and spread, and eventually those bacteria will get into your bloodstream. Once they're in your blood, they will be carried to every part of your body so they can wreak havoc and chaos on your system and kill you. |

if the infection spreads.. like to your brain or something |

Yes you can if the infection from the tooth is not cleared up the bacteria can get into the blood stream, in ancient times many a man was killed by just such a thing |

Yes, because untreated infections can spread. |
|

|
yes you could, that is very dangerouse, if the infection gets in your blood line, it will go to your heart and can kill you. it happened to a good friend of mines mother. she died from it when he was 14 years old |
|

Yes, it is possible. the bacterial infection can break apart from the tooth and spread through the bloodstream, and lodge in places in your heart or brain.
Hope this helps. |

Yes, it could get infected and that infection could spread and affect your organs. |

Yes you can...any infection, left untreated, can spread to other parts of the body where it cannot be easily eradicated and cause overall fevers, bad reactions, increased heart rates, and death. |
