Urgent Care
Boise, Idaho
Any time a severe injury to the facial region occurs, whether it be the teeth, gums, jaw, or lips, it is critical to address the problem as soon as possible to avoid serious complications. It is virtually impossible for patients to know when an emergency oral health issue will arise in advance; you cannot plan for the possibility of your teeth getting knocked out or knowing you will have a fractured jaw. But not seeking immediate treatment will increase your risk of serious infection or permanent damage. Waiting will also increase the time and expense necessary to correct the problem or injury suffered.
Some of the most common oral health emergencies include
- Abscess
- Knocked-out teeth
- Partially dislodged teeth
- Fractured jaw
