Bone resorption superior to the mylohyoid line and the related abscess formation in submandibular space or submental space were both significantly associated with the presence of sublingual space abscess. In addition, the type of causative tooth was not a risk factor for abscess formation in both the sublingual space and \u201csubmandibular or submental\u201d space.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>When an odontogenic lesion is located superior to the mylohyoid line, the abscess tends to initially form in the sublingual space and subsequently spread to the submandibular or submental space. Since any mandibular tooth can lead to abscess formation in these regions, oral and maxillofacial surgeons should carefully assess the anatomical position of the lesion and accurately identify the causative tooth.<\/jats:p>\n
