Emergency or Not?
Emergency dentistry deals with oral health complications that require immediate attention. Examples of complications that fall under emergency dentistry include
- Trauma and accidents
- Extractions
- Oral pain and toothaches
- Root canals
- Cracked or chipped teeth
- Teeth that have been knocked out
- Damage to dental work
- Sports-related injuries
- Wisdom tooth removal
- Oral infections
- Complications resulting from oral surgery
- Dental abscess
- Facial swelling
- Bleeding gums
- Toothache
- Jaw (TMJ) pain
Oral health complications should be dealt with as soon as possible. Even if there’s little or no pain, they can quickly lead to more serious and long-lasting damage if not treated promptly.
The absolute best way to avoid oral health complications is to take good care of your teeth. Daily brushing and flossing, along with scheduling regular dental appointments every six months, can prevent unnecessary complications.
