How do you know when a dental injury constitutes a dental emergency? There are some instances in which emergency dental care is necessary to save a tooth and prevent further damage, while other acute dental needs can be handled with an urgent appointment. For instance, if you knock out a tooth or have a loose tooth, call your dentist any time—even after hours—for emergency dentistry care. On the other hand, if you lose a filling, you can generally wait to call for an appointment during office hours. Most dentists save space in their daily schedules for these urgent needs.
