Peer Review

 * Lead: The lead is a bit long but does a good job at giving an overview on the subject. The infobox is also well done.
 * Content: The content covers everything you'd want to know about the subject. I would suggest including links to other wiki articles, for instance in Signs and symptoms, adding wiki links to words like "bilateral" "submandibular" etc... The treatment section is awesome.
 * Tone and balance: Tone is appropriate and unbiased
 * Sources and references: The majority of the sources were from public, well-known sources.
 * Overall the article is easy to read, and does a good job at covering all bases regarding the subject. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gilerman (talk • contribs) 04:09, 15 November 2021 (UTC)

Tongue piercing associated with ludwig's angina?
The article stated "Ludwig's angina is also associated with body piercing of hte lingual frenulum" with 3 sources. These sources all seem to be referring to a single reported case:. A see also link was also present linking to a tongue piercing page. Based upon the single reported case, I do not think it is appropriate to say there is an association and place a see also link. I have reworded this sentence to state that there has only been a single case and removed the see also link. Another option would be to remove this content entirely on grounds of UNDUE and NOTABILITY. Lesion ( talk ) 13:04, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

Why does submandibular space infection redirect here?
These are not synonymous terms. A unilateral and minor infection of the submandibular space would not be called Ludwig's angina, which by definition is a rapidly progressive cellulitis which is bilateral. Lesion ( talk ) 13:59, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
