Pain and swelling are two obvious symptoms.

Abscess can also cause fever, and if the swelling is large you'll feel discomfort while opening your mouth. Also sometimes the pain is felt only when you apply pressure on the spot where abscess has formed.

There is sometimes a bump filled with pus beside the tooth in question.The pain may also radiate into the ear.

See your dentist right away if you suspect an abscess, because infection can lead to bone loss.

The most obvious symptom is swollen gums or jaw; you may appear as if you have a big lump of something in your cheek. You also will probably have a bad toothache but not always. (I personally had a toothache for several days, then woke up one day with the toothache gone but with a swollen jaw; I had to go on antibiotics to treat the infection, and eventually had the tooth extracted.)

A toothache may feel like a sharp pain or a dull, throbbing ache. The tooth may be sensitive to pressure, heat, cold, or sweets. In cases of severe pain, identifying the problem tooth is often difficult.
