A dental emergency can strike at any time. Whether it’s a broken or lost tooth, facial swelling, or trauma to the gums, mouth or teeth, dental emergencies can be extremely painful. Even minor issues, left untreated, can lead to more serious problems like infections or permanent damage to teeth or gums.
