Recent studies show that many people spend unnecessary\ntime and money taking their dental emergency to their local ER instead of their\nemergency dentist. Since hospitals and medical staff alike are overwhelmed with\nthe current COVID-19 pandemic, it\u2019s more important than ever to know where to\nturn for serious issues with your smile. Keep yourself healthy while getting\nthe care you need by calling your<a href=\"https:\/\/www.springhousedentist.com\/emergency-dentistry.html\"> Spring\nHouse emergency dentist<\/a> before heading to the ER. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Advantages of Calling Your Emergency Dentist First<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to dental emergencies, acting quickly can make\nall the difference. However, that doesn\u2019t mean you should immediately run off\nto your local ER, especially in the midst of the coronavirus outbreak. A few\nadvantages of getting treatment from your emergency dentist instead include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>You\u2019re less likely to get sick: <\/strong>COVID-19\nis very contagious, so the best way to keep yourself healthy is to avoid large\ncrowds. Far fewer people will be visiting your dentist than waiting at the ER,\nso you\u2019ll reduce your exposure to potentially sick individuals. <\/li><li><strong>You\u2019re more likely to get treatment faster:<\/strong>\nWith fewer patients to attend to than an emergency room doctor, your dentist\nwill likely be able to provide you treatment faster as well.<\/li><li><strong>You won\u2019t be contributing to overcrowded hospitals<\/strong>:\nWhile most cases of COVID-19 are mild or moderate, for some it can become\nlife-threatening. This influx of patients needing serious help alongside other,\nmore commonplace health emergencies has nearly overwhelmed health care workers.\nTaking your dental issues to a dentist frees up the valuable time and effort of\nmedical staff who may be needed more elsewhere. <\/li><li><strong>You can get the specialize dental care you\nneed: <\/strong>Not all emergency rooms are equipped with a dentist on staff who can\nperform tooth extractions, root canals, or other emergency procedures. An\nemergency dentist will have all the right training, equipment, and technology\nto quickly and comfortably restore your oral health and repair your smile. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Signs That You Should Call Your Emergency Dentist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Unless you are having trouble breathing or swallowing, you should\ncall your dentist for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Broken teeth<\/li><li>Uncontrollable bleeding in the mouth<\/li><li>Knocked-out or partially dislodged permanent teeth<\/li><li>An intense or severe toothache <\/li><li>Signs of a serious oral infection, like fatigue,\nfever, or swelling in the face, jaw, or neck <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Hopefully, neither you nor your loved ones will experience a\ndental emergency during quarantine. However, knowing where to go to get the\nurgent treatment you need is an important part of keeping yourself and your smile\nhealthy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>For quick, comfortable, and effective emergency dental\ncare in Spring House, PA, call NeoSmile Dental Care.
