A tooth abscess can develop into severe complications if not treated right away; it is imperative to seek the help of a dental professional as soon as possible. If a dental abscess is not treated in its initial stage, the infection may last anywhere from 5 months to 12 months (or even longer). If an abscess is left untreated, the dental pulp will die away and may develop into another abscess, possibly traveling through the bone and appearing in several spots.   If you have a tooth abscess, it is imperative to seek immediate care.
