title: [Acute diffuse facial cellulitis].
abstract: This is a serious sudden-onset affection with general and local manifestations due to apparently simple dental or peridental lesions. Septic inoculation from skin wounds due to injury or operation is a rare occurrence in daily practice. This complication is now fairly uncommon and no longer has the previously inexorable prognosis that was observed regularly before the availability of modern means of treatment. The latter must be instituted rapidly however, and this is not always possible under certain circumstances. The different aspects of this section of stomatologic disorders are described in this article destined for pedagogic use.
