Dental Emergency
  • Anyone who has had a dental emergency knows how
    terrible it can be.
  • The pain can be excruciating, the bleeding
    copious and the swelling frightening to look at.
  • However, dental emergencies, as frightening and
    painful as they can be, are rarely
    life-threatening in themselves.
  • Emergency rooms are meant to deal with serious,
    critical or life-threatening injures.

Emergency rooms are not equipped for Dental
Emergency
  • Dentistry is a specialized field of medicine and
    dentists have different qualifications and use
    specialized equipment in their treatment process
    that is different from other medical equipment or
    devices.
  • This means that if an emergency room was to
    offer emergency dental service, it would need to
    invest in additional space, installing extra
    equipment and employing dentists to care for the
    patients who come in with dental injures.

  • The Numbers are Frightening
  • On average, about 800,000 people in this country
    go to an emergency room for dental emergencies
    each year.
  • In one state alone, there were 115,000 dental
    related visits to the emergency room in a year.
  • The cost averaged out to 765 per visit, even
    though in most cases no real treatment could be
    provided.
  • That means that the patients had to go to a
    dentist later which added to the financial
    burden.
  • It is not possible to put into words the pain and
    discomfort that patients underwent until they got
    to a dentist.

  • Dealing with Dental Emergencies
  • The best way to deal with dental emergencies is
    to prevent them from happening. Accidents can
    happen anywhere, any time.
  • But dental problems usually develop over time and
    become emergencies only because they are ignored.
  • Regular dental checkups and oral hygiene will
    help minimize the possibility of emergencies
    arising.
  • Not all dentists offer emergency treatment, but
    if an emergency does arise, there are some
    dentists that you can go to for treatment. Search
    for "emergency dentist in San Jose" (or wherever
    you may live) and keep the contact details with
    you.
  • Have a family dental care provider so that if an
    emergency arises, you can go to a dentist you
    know and who knows you and your dental history.
  • That will make the treatment easier for the
    dentist and you.
