Management of Dental Emergencies

Dental emergency situations are often demanding due to the patient's pain or due to time constraints on the dentists' side. Every Dental specialist should have the knowledge to identify and manage a potentially life‑threatening situation. Prompt recognition and efficient management of an emergency by the specialist results in a satisfactory outcome. Though rare emergencies do occur in a dental clinic. The ultimate goal in the management of all emergencies is the preservation of life.
