Understanding Dental Emergencies
Common Dental Emergencies
Severe Toothache
Intense, throbbing pain could indicate infection or other serious issues requiring immediate evaluation by a dentist.
Broken or Lost Restoration
A dislodged crown or filling exposes the sensitive underlying tooth structure, needing prompt repair to prevent further damage or pain.
Knocked Out Tooth
Time is critical for a knocked-out tooth. Seeking immediate dental care significantly increases the chances of saving and re-implanting the tooth.
Other Urgent Issues
This includes abscesses, significant swelling, bleeding that won’t stop, or severe pain following a dental procedure.
Broken or Chipped Tooth
Even minor chips can expose nerves or lead to infection if not treated promptly.
Bleeding Gums
Persistent or heavy bleeding from the gums or mouth after injury requires immediate attention.
