What Is Dental Emergency?
If you have even the slightest pain in your tooth, there’s a good chance you need to see a dentist because you are nearing a dental emergency. Dental emergency is the universal term used to define any severe issues concerning the teeth and surrounding tissues, even if pain isn’t involved. It is important to have the problem treated by a dentist or orthodontist immediately. When you experience discomfort in the tooth or gum area your dentist will recommend an extraction or root canal.

When Should I Visit A Dentist?
Dental emergencies occur when the root or enamel of your tooth has begun to decay. When the root – pulp – becomes inflamed or infected your dentist will suggest a root canal. Chips or cracks to the enamel can cause the pulp to become unsettled and also result in inflammation. The dentist will remove the damaged pulp, clean the area, then fill and seal the space with a substance called gutta-percha. The procedure is complete when the crown is replaced on the tooth. When the dental emergency is remedied your tooth will be back to normal.
