What is a Dental Emergency?

A dental emergency is any situation that requires immediate attention from a dentist to alleviate pain, prevent further damage, or save a tooth. Common dental emergencies include:

  • Severe toothache or dental pain
  • Knocked-out (avulsed) tooth
  • Broken or chipped tooth
  • Lost or damaged dental restoration (e.g., filling, crown)
  • Abscess or infection
  • Trauma to the mouth or jaw
  • Soft tissue injuries (e.g., cuts, lacerations) inside the mouth

What to Do in a Dental Emergency

If you find yourself facing a dental emergency, here are some steps you can take to manage the situation before seeking professional help:

Stay Calm

Try to remain calm and assess the situation calmly.

Control Bleeding

If there is bleeding, apply gentle pressure with a
clean cloth or gauze to control it.

Save the Tooth

If a tooth has been knocked out, handle it carefully by the crown (the larger, top part of the tooth) and rinse it gently with water. Try to reinsert it into the socket if possible, or place it in a container of milk or saliva to keep it moist.

Manage Pain

Over-the-counter pain medication can help alleviate
discomfort until you can see a dentist.
