Here Are a Few Examples of Dental Emergencies
Severe toothaches are often signs of an underlying issue such as infection or decay. If you're experiencing intense, persistent pain in your tooth, it's best to seek emergency dental care as soon as possible.
A knocked-out tooth requires immediate attention to increase the chances of saving the tooth. If you cannot reinsert it yourself, try placing it in milk until you get to the dentist to potentially save it.
A cracked or broken tooth can cause pain and sensitivity and leave your tooth vulnerable to infection. If this happens to you, use a cold compress to reduce swelling after rinsing with warm water. Emergency dental care may be needed to stop further damage.
Losing a filling or crown can expose the tooth and cause discomfort. If you've lost one, try to find it and keep it in a safe place. Avoid eating on that side of your mouth until you can get expert help.
This can be a sign of gum disease. If your gums are bleeding regularly or are swollen and tender, seek emergency dental care. Untreated, it could lead to tooth loss.
