Oral infections commonly originate from an odontogenic source in adults and from tonsil and lymphatic sources in children. Odontogenic infections arise from advanced dental caries or periodontal disease. Oral trauma, radiation injury, chemotherapy mucositis, salivary gland infection, lymph node abscess, and postoperative infection are potential nonodontogenic sources of infections that could potentially be life threatening. This article reviews the serious nature and potential danger that exists from oral infection and the antibiotics available to treat them are reviewed. Successful treatment requires an understanding of the microflora, the regional anatomy, the disease process, the treatment methods available, and interdisciplinary team collaboration.
口腔感染在成人中通常源于牙源性，在儿童中则源于扁桃体和淋巴源性。牙源性感染源自晚期龋齿或牙周疾病。口腔创伤、放射损伤、化疗性粘膜炎、唾液腺感染、淋巴结脓肿和术后感染是潜在的非牙源性感染源，可能会危及生命。本文回顾了口腔感染的严重性和潜在危险，并对可用于治疗这些感染的抗生素进行了综述。成功的治疗需要了解微生物群落、局部解剖结构、疾病过程、可用的治疗方法以及跨学科团队协作。
