Preventive care focuses on practices that help patients avoid cavities, gum disease, enamel wear and enamel loss, tooth loss and other dental problems. These practices include brushing, flossing and regular trips to the dentist.
Dental emergencies can happen, and often do when you least expect them. You can crack a tooth by biting into a sandwich, for example, or you can lose a filling right before giving an important speech.
Emergency visits are necessary for dental problems that are painful, cause swelling or fever, involve a broken, missing or cracked tooth, or that cause bleeding in the tongue or lips.
