Dental infection can cause lockjaw!

KDAH

If left untreated, a dental infection can spread to surrounding tissues, potentially leading to lockjaw or trismus. This painful condition is characterized by an inability to open the mouth fully due to muscle spasms and stiffness in the jaw, often caused by infections from abscessed teeth or gum disease. If you notice any stiffness in your jaw, seek dental care promptly. #DentalHealth #Lockjaw #OralInfections
