A dental emergency generally means that you need immediate dental care and attention from a dental professional. Most critical situations are the result of an accident, and common mouth injuries include knocked out, cracked, and broken teeth. Any of these situations can result in severe pain and swelling in the mouth, which will require professional attention.
If a tooth has been completely knocked out, it is best to try to secure it gently back in place. If this can’t be done without disturbing the roots and causing pain, store the tooth in a container of milk before seeking emergency attention.
Emergency dental care may or may not be required depending on the severity of the injury. Minor chipped or fractured teeth may be able to wait until normal business hours. However, if pain is interfering with sleeping and eating, it’s a dental emergency and time to place a call to your family dentist.
A knocked out tooth can often be saved if the tooth is properly preserved and if the problem is addressed right away. Likewise, an infection from a tooth abscess can be both a painful and serious dental emergency.
