When you are faced with a dental emergency, we advise you to schedule an appointment for an emergency dental consultation as soon as possible. Before you make an appointment, you should ensure that the dental problem plaguing you is truly an emergency. In this article, we would like to give you some tips on what conditions are considered dental emergencies, how to make an appointment, and what to expect during such a consultation.
Suppose you find yourself in a situation that requires an appointment with an emergency dentist. In that case, the team at EgoDent is always ready to step in with quick solutions that are appropriate for your trouble!
How do you recognize a dental emergency?
A dental emergency refers to specific problems with your mouth or teeth that usually limit your ability to go about your daily activities. It is in a different category than ordinary medical emergencies, so going to the emergency room is unnecessary. A dental emergency may include the following:
- Abscessed tooth;
- The tooth was removed from its socket (tooth that has fallen out);
- Persistent bleeding;
- Unbearable toothache.
When dealing with a toothache or problem, it is essential to distinguish between an emergency and something that does not require immediate treatment. For example, a filling that has fallen out, a crown that has fallen out, or a tooth that has broken off are not considered dental emergencies unless you are uncomfortable with sharp fragments in your mouth.

How are emergency dental consultations conducted?
During your emergency dental appointment, the dentist will perform an exam and tests based on your symptoms to determine the cause of the problem.

Before starting treatment, the dentist will provide you with all possible treatment options and their corresponding prices so you can make an informed decision.
