    Now that dental offices are only seeing emergency patients and not doing any elective procedures, I want to shed some light on what is considered an emergency procedure.

    According to The American Dental Association, emergency procedures are: “potentially life threatening and require immediate treatment to stop ongoing tissue bleeding [or to] alleviate severe pain or infection.”

    Conditions include uncontrolled bleeding; soft tissue bacterial infections with swelling that potentially compromises the patient’s airway; or trauma involving facial bones that potentially compromises the patient’s airway.”

    Examples of urgent dental care treatments, include:

    • Severe dental pain from a root canal infection
    • Wisdom teeth pain.
    • Pain after an extraction – possibly from a dry socket.
    • Abscess or localized bacterial infection resulting in localized pain and swelling.
    • Tooth fracture resulting in pain or causing soft tissue trauma.
    • Dental trauma when a tooth gets knocked out.
    • Dental treatment cementation if the temporary restoration is lost, broken or causing gum irritation.

    Other emergency dental care includes:

    • extensive decay or defective restorations causing pain; 
    • suture removal; 
    • denture adjustments on radiation/oncology patients; 
    • denture adjustments or repairs when it affects the function; 
    • replacing temporary filling on a root canal treatment in patients experiencing pain; 
    • snipping or adjustments of an orthodontic wire or appliances piercing or ulcerating the oral mucosa.

    Non dental emergencies include:

    • Routine checkups and cleanings
    • Orthodontic procedures
    • Extraction of teeth that have no symptoms
    • Routine fillings and crowns
    • Cosmetic procedures

    Still not sure if you have a dental emergency? If you are experiencing: bleeding gums, a broken tooth, mouth injury, or severe pain, then give us a call at 954-566-7479. If you do need an appointment, we’ll do our best to get you in right away.
