What Counts As a Dental Emergency?
So many people in the United States worry about wasting resources or taking away treatment from someone else, meaning that many often avoid emergency dentistry because they think their situation isn’t severe enough. For many, this often isn’t the case, as there are many situations that require a helping hand. If you are experiencing one of the following scenarios, you need emergency dentistry:
- Having a permanent tooth knocked out
- Cracking or breaking a tooth
- Severe bleeding from the tongue, gums, or other soft tissues
- Injuring your jaw
- Intense pain anywhere in the mouth
- Infection of the tooth or gums
When a person’s chief complaint is pain, it often is to the point where eating, drinking, or speaking become uncomfortable.
