What is a dental emergency?
A dental emergency involves any urgent situation with your teeth or gums that demands immediate medical attention to relieve severe pain, stop ongoing tissue bleeding, or save a tooth. Dental emergencies can be distressing and may occur unexpectedly at any time. Understanding and promptly identifying the type of dental emergency you are experiencing is crucial as it significantly improves your chances of a favorable outcome.
