is one in which de cay has progressed till the nerve is exposed there is a tiny hole at 1he jawend of every tooth at which point the artery vein and nerve pass into the tooths centre if the nerve exposed the artery stands wide open every mouth contains bacteria which can thus get into the bolodstream inflammation causes swelling which owing to the confinement in the tooth itself can only take place at that lower point where artery vein and nerve enter this cuts off the blood supply and the nerve dies suppur atlon starts and an abcess forms the circulation can take care of part of the
