Query: Should I go to the emergency room or visit an emergency dentist?
Context: If an injury or issue is tooth, gum, or mouth-related, you will almost always want to make an appointment with an emergency dentist rather than visiting an emergency room. This is because most emergency rooms are not equipped to handle dental emergencies, and most ER staff members don’t have the knowledge or experience necessary to treat dental emergencies. If you are unsure of what to do, you are always welcome to give our office a call to get advice from our team. If you have any other injuries that are more urgent than your dental-related emergency, then we recommend visiting the emergency room first.
