What is emergency dentistry?

Emergency dentistry is a type of dental care that addresses urgent dental issues. This can include anything from tooth pain to a broken tooth. If you have a dental emergency, it’s important that you seek treatment right away. By getting immediate attention, you can ensure that your condition does not worsen and that you can get the treatment you need to address the issue.

What are some common dental emergencies?

There are several different types of dental emergencies that can occur. Some of the most common include:

• Tooth pain: This can be caused by a variety of things, including infection, a cavity, or inflammation. It’s important to find treatment as soon as possible to address the underlying issue.
• Broken tooth: A broken or chipped tooth can be caused by trauma to the mouth or by biting down on something hard. Treatment can repair the broken, damaged tooth to protect the remaining structure of the tooth from further damage or even extraction. 
• Knocked-out tooth: A knocked-out tooth is a very serious dental emergency. Immediate attention is needed to improve the chances of the tooth being replanted.
• Abscessed tooth: An abscessed tooth is an infection that requires prompt treatment. If left untreated, it can lead to serious health complications.
