Abscess — definition?
Localized pus collection needing drainage.
Periodontitis — role?
Infection stage requiring dental and pharmacological treatment.
Pluri-spacial affection — significance?
Involvement of multiple spaces, indicating dissemination.
Odontogenic infection stage I — treatment?
Dental treatment plus pharmacology.
Chamber opening — purpose?
Relieve acute apical periodontitis by oxygen change.
Conventional extraction — when?
When conservative treatment isn't possible.
Antibiotic principles — key?
Efficacy, safety, minimal toxicity, cost.
Antibiotic route — preferred in severe cases?
Parenteral for guaranteed levels.
Prophylaxis — high-risk patients?
Indicated for valve prostheses, endocarditis history, certain heart defects.
Prophylaxis — standard regimen?
Amoxicillin 2 g oral pre-surgery.
Surgical drainage — goal?
Eliminate pus, necrotic tissue, improve oxygenation.

Post-antibiotic effect — mechanism?
Immune cells store and release antibiotics near pathogens.
Surgical timing — in cellulitis?
Early, before maturation, to prevent tissue compromise.
