Silverhill Dental
Common dental emergencies include: Broken, cracked, or knocked-out teeth Dental abscess Bleeding from the mouth that won’t stop Intense mouth pain that prevents you from sleeping or doing other activities Loose tooth Object caught between teeth Broken jaw Swollen mouth area Permanent tooth knocked out Root canals or extractions A pulled-out filling or crown is a serious emergency because it exposes your vulnerable enamel to further damage and could result in tooth infection. Even a case of advanced gum disease could be considered a dental emergency!
