What Constitutes A Dental Emergency?

Dental emergencies can arise as a result of many causes and can manifest in a variety of ways.

Some common dental emergencies include the following:

Types of Dental Emergencies:

  • Broken or cracked tooth
  • Tooth knocked out or damaged due to trauma
  • Filling, crown, or other dental work falling out
  • Infection or acute toothache

How to Handle a Dental Emergency

In some cases the dental emergency may involve not only pain, but even blood.
