Questions to Ask Yourself

Dental emergencies are quite common and are experienced by about 22% of the population every six months. Even though dental emergencies tend to be common, not every dental situation should be considered critical. When determining if your situation needs to be handled immediately or if it can wait, you should consider some of the following questions.

  • Is there severe pain? Dental situations which provoke severe pain or bleeding should be considered an emergency.
    • Have you lost a tooth? Prompt treatment provided by an emergency dentist may be able to save that tooth.
    • Are there loose teeth? As an adult, you should never lose a tooth. Loose teeth, even when not painful, are a major concern.
    • Is there an infection? A serious infection or abscess could lead to life-threatening complications and treatment should be had as soon as you can get it.
    • Is there bleeding? Bleeding could indicate the need for immediate treatment.

If you are not sure where your situation falls, please never hesitate to call your dentist. Your dentist will be the best point of contact for the next steps. If you are looking into finding a dentist which will treat your emergencies with the necessary urgency, please call Dr. Milton Ruiz at Pines Dental Associates today at (954) 715-4660.
