A dental emergency is any situation involving your teeth, gums, or jaw that requires immediate professional attention to alleviate severe pain, stop bleeding, save a tooth, or prevent serious complications. Recognizing true emergencies helps you respond appropriately and seek care when time is critical.
Intense, persistent tooth pain often indicates infection, advanced decay, or abscess. Delaying treatment can lead to the infection spreading to other areas.
Teeth dislodged by trauma may be saved if you receive treatment within an hour. Every minute counts in these situations.
Fractured teeth expose sensitive inner layers to bacteria and can worsen quickly. Immediate care prevents further damage and infection.
When restorations fall out, underlying tooth structure becomes vulnerable to decay and damage. Prompt replacement protects the tooth.
Pus-filled infections around tooth roots cause severe pain and swelling. Abscesses are serious infections that require immediate treatment.
Deep cuts, lacerations, or puncture wounds to your lips, cheeks, tongue, or gums may require sutures and professional care to heal properly.
Trauma affecting your jaw requires immediate evaluation to prevent permanent damage and ensure proper healing.
Food or foreign objects stuck between teeth that can't be removed with floss may cause pain, swelling, or infection.
