What is a dental emergency? A dental emergency is something that happens to our teeth or gums that cause use extreme pain or puts our mouth at risk. A perfect example is a tooth that becomes chipped or cracked due to trauma. This tooth will need to be covered with a crown to protect it, or may need to be extracted depending on the extent of the damage. An individual experiencing extreme pain from a cavity or infection may also benefit from emergency dentistry.

These are all instances that constitute emergency dentistry.
