Any dental problem that requires professional treatment to save the tooth, stop tissue bleeding or alleviate severe pain is a dental emergency. While a knocked-out tooth, cracked tooth or tissue injury are dental emergencies, a severe infection or abscess in the mouth also requires emergency dental care. Let us look at what other situations demand emergency dental care, and ways prevent and identify dental emergencies.
Implants and Restorations Problems with implant and restorations used to treat dental issues also count as a dental emergency. A broken, cracked or worn out crown or bridge constitutes a dental emergency. If you have a dental device like dental implants, bridges or crowns, you must go for routine dental checkups to ensure they are not posing any risks to your oral health. A temporary crown is provided to treat dental emergency, until the permanent crown is ready to be placed. Having a temporary crown come off is not a dental emergency, but it is essential to put it back in place to save your tooth. By using Vaseline, toothpaste, chapstick, or a small amount of dental adhesive, you can place the temporary crown back in place. Apply pressure with a washcloth to place it properly. However, you must see a dentist to get it properly cemented. Whether a Dental Emergency or Not? A minor chip, re-cementing crowns, and composite filling to repair a dental issue that does not hurt are not dental emergencies. However, most of the times people face problems with identifying a dental emergency. In such cases you must go through this checklist:

If any of these conditions occur, the situation calls for emergency dental care.
Once you see your dentist, you must give accurate details of the cause behind the dental issue and the current condition. This helps the dentist set further course of action. Preventing Dental Emergency Many dental emergencies can be prevented by following good oral care regimen. This includes routine dental checkups to ensure that your teeth, gums and mouth are clean and healthy. If you are involved in sports or physical activity, consider using a mouth guard to prevent dental emergencies like broken or cracked tooth. Avoid chewing on hard foods that may crack or break your teeth. Make sure you carry a dental kit with you whenever you are travelling to be prepared for any dental emergency. It is best to see a dentist before you travel to ensure there is no symptom that may result in a dental emergency. A dental emergency can occur anytime. Instead of panicking, it is best to consult an emergency dental care service. Additionally, keep in mind several situations that call for emergency dental care and ways to manage them until you see the dentist. Regular visits to a dentist help in preventing dental issues and maintaining oral hygiene. |
