Why is prompt treatment important for dental emergencies?
Seeking prompt emergency care helps relieve pain, stop bleeding, and prevent further damage or infection. Delaying treatment can increase the risk of serious complications, such as abscesses or tooth loss. Immediate professional examination and care give the best chance to save affected teeth and protect overall oral health.

What should I do before arriving for emergency dental care?
While waiting to be seen, rinse your mouth with warm water to clean the area, and gently floss to remove trapped debris. Use a cold compress for swelling and avoid inserting medications directly on the gums. If a permanent tooth is knocked out, keep it moist in milk or saliva while you seek care, as rapid action may save the tooth.
