What Qualifies as a Dental Emergency?
Dental emergencies are situations that require immediate attention to prevent further damage or to relieve pain. Some common dental emergencies include:
- Severe toothache: Persistent pain or sensitivity that interferes with daily activities.
- Knocked-out tooth: A tooth that has been completely dislodged due to trauma.
- Chipped or cracked tooth: Damage that exposes the inner layers of the tooth.
- Lost filling or crown: Restorations that have fallen out, leaving the tooth vulnerable.
- Swelling or infection: Infections that cause swelling, fever or discomfort.
- Injury to gums or soft tissues: Cuts or lacerations that may require stitching or care.
If you are unsure whether your situation requires emergency care, call our office to discuss your symptoms with a member of our team.
