Is there are dentist in the house?Tuesday, October 06, 2009
Emergency Room Dentistry?Recently an article in USA Today found that people are beginning to use emergency rooms for dental care. The newspaper quoted a patient that had gone to the University of Virginia Medical center with a “horrible toothache”.
According to personal at the medical center, dental visits are the 5th most common reason for people to walk into an emergency room.
Why is this happening? It could be due to many individual who don’t have dental insurance and hope that the medical staff at an emergency room will attend to them. In instances such as these an emergency room will have the ability to provide antibiotics for infection and possibly pain medication, but the need to still be seen by a dentist will exist if the source of the pain and infection is to be eliminated.
This emphasizes the need for routine visits to a dental office to have your teeth cleaned and examined periodically. Usually an episode of dental pain can be avoided with these periodic appointments. Please call our office to arrange a cleaning and examination. We can be reached at 561-394-9000.
