Most cases of dental pain do not represent genuine “dental emergencies,” though if left untreated, the sources of even minor discomfort can come to pose serious health risks. There are, however, certain telltale signs that a person is, in fact, suffering from a genuine dental emergency, and should seek immediate dental care.

Common Types of Dental Emergencies

  1. Sudden, severe, and persistent tooth pain
  2. Swelling of the gums or jaw
  3. Bleeding from the mouth or gums for no obvious reason
  4. Loose tooth/teeth. In adults, a loose tooth, even without pain, is a serious problem
  5. Breakage or loss of a tooth, either due to direct impact or decay
  6. Broken crown(s)

It is important to note that each case is unique, both in terms of ailment and the patient’s personal medical history. Thus, the opinion of a qualified dentist should be sought in order to determine the appropriate course of action.
