[The submasseteric abscess as a complication of the semi-impacted wisdom tooth infection].
The submasseteric abscess is a serious problem related with the semi-impacted mandibular wisdom-tooth infection. Especially severe complications are long-term trismus and osteomyelitis of the mandibular ramus. Treatment must be radical and depends on the stage of the infection (acute or chronic, early or mature). Important remains the preventive extraction of the responsible third molar.
