an abscess is an infection that is essentially puss building up and has no way to escape... the pressure on the nerves is the cause of the pain... at this point a dentist will drill the cavity to relieve it and then prescribe antibiotics to kill the infection... an oral surgeon seem to enjoy extraction,which is never fun...

I drilled my own tooth on a couple of occasions,and as soon as the puss started squirting out the pain was instantly gone...
