What is a life-threatening dental emergency?

What is a dental emergency?

While they may seem innocuous, albeit very unpleasant, toothaches can actually be signs of serious health problems. An untreated infection or abscess doesn’t go away on its own; it can spread to other parts of the body and present systemic threats to your health.

Don’t wait to get care if you are experiencing the following:

  • Trouble breathing and swallowing
  • A fever of 103 degrees or higher (for adults)
  • Headaches, coupled with symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, flushing, and chills
  • Severe swelling that makes it difficult to fully open your mouth
  • Chest pain
  • Confusion
  • Vomiting
  • Pain when urinating
  • Sensitivity to light
  • Seizures

These symptoms indicate that a tooth may be infected, and that the infection has spread. Complications from an oral infection can also be quite serious, and include dehydration.

So, yes, problems with your teeth and gums can progress to serious conditions that threaten your overall health! Don’t wait to get the emergency care you need. Call (214) 703-6900. If concerns over the cost of care have kept you from visiting the dentist, Kings Dental accepts most insurances – even Medicaid and CHIP – and offers competitive cash prices. We’re happy to work with you to get you feeling better and smiling again.
