[Acute apical abscess: emergency treatment].
The author discusses the different philosophies concerning the emergency treatment of the acute apical abcess, proposing the corresponding attitudes in this case: immediate transradicular drainage, complete chemo-mechanical cleaning of the root canal and closing the access to the root canal as soon as possible. In the most serious situations we can make an incision for drainage through the soft tissues. Pain and infection control.
