Dental Emergency Red Light-When should I go to Dental Emergency?
If I have a long vacation, tooth
trauma, toothache, swollen face, bleeding unceasingly, toppled things, etc.,
suddenly some dental problems occur, do I need to go to the dental emergency
department? And in what situations do you need advice for a dental emergency?
There are three aspects to consider:
1. Dental emergency department is "Your urgency, anxiety? Or is it really a dental problem?"
2. Dental emergency, red, yellow and green?
3. How to prevent it?
First, are you anxious? Or is dental disease really urgent?
The most important thing in the emergency system is the classification of injuries, which means that emergency resources are used on patients who are truly life-threatening. For dental-related problems, even if you go to the emergency room, according to the professional emergency injury classification, most of them only really need to use emergency resources. The concept of proper dental emergency that we should have is as follows.
1. Dental emergency is definitely not that you usually do n’t have time to go or do n’t want to take a leave to go to the dental clinic for appointments, or you ca n’t sleep at night, catch a plane tomorrow, leave home for a long vacation, and want to return home to deal with your teeth quickly, but do n’t want to wait for the general The appointment time, etc., I just thought of going to the dental emergency department and misusing emergency department resources.
2. Dental emergency is definitely not "treating" teeth, but emergency treatment. Always remember that after emergency treatment, you must make an appointment with a professional stomatologist to complete the subsequent identification, diagnosis and treatment.
3. The best way to prevent it is to check regularly. Do not hold your teeth uncomfortable anyway. You don't need to look at the mentality of the teeth. When the teeth are out, you will complain that the appointment is difficult and the appointment is too long. In addition, the self does perform good oral cleaning and is responsible for himself.
Second, the degree of dental emergency department red, yellow, green
Dental emergency red light
It accounts for less than 1% of the patients, and this kind of really needs to go to the emergency department with a dentist on duty, evaluation and treatment. However, you can do your own preliminary treatment at home before going to the emergency department.
(1) Permanent teeth fall off and fall out
Vital signs stability is always the first priority, followed by the three principles of fast, release and return to deal with lost teeth.
"Fast": 30-60 minutes of prime time; quickly find the teeth, and quickly put them back into the alveolar bone.
Permanent teeth can be put back; however, only the crown can be grasped by the hand, and the root of the tooth should not be touched.
Deciduous teeth, don't put them back; even if you find them, don't put them back in your mouth.
"Release": If the tooth cannot be replaced due to various reasons after the tooth is lost; including finding the tooth that is lost, or the surface of the tooth that is lost is dirty, etc., it is recommended to store the tooth in ice milk, physiological saline and seek medical treatment as soon as possible.
There is also literature suggesting that the lost permanent teeth can be placed in the mouth, but be aware that they may be swallowed. It is not recommended to wrap the teeth in toilet paper, nor is it recommended to brush the tooth surface by yourself, because this will damage the cells on the tooth surface and cause a poor prognosis in the future.
"Back": After the vital signs are stable, deal with the oral cavity related problems; and after the holidays, consult a doctor as soon as possible.
(2) Facial trauma and fracture
All trauma must ensure the vital signs are stable before dealing with dental problems.
(3) The face becomes swollen and becomes more and more severe. The swollen area is warm, red, and tender; it swells to the eyes, has difficulty swallowing, suddenly has difficulty opening mouth, has difficulty breathing, and is accompanied by increased body temperature.
This may lead to the possibility of acute systemic infection due to dental infections or non-dental factors. Sudden and severe mouth opening and closing can not be opened. If the patient has a temporal jaw problem and just happens, it needs to be ruled out.
Patients themselves need to know if they have had any dental-related symptoms recently and what treatments have been performed. Such as inflammation around wisdom teeth, tooth decay, periodontal disease, toothache, swollen face, pustules of the gums, redness and bleeding of the teeth, or oral surgery, tooth extraction, etc.
Some oral surgery, extraction, implant, periodontal surgery, apical surgery, etc. For people in general health, it is normal to swell slowly in 2-3 days, usually on the third and fourth days is the peak of the seed, and then slowly swelling, about 7-10 days will be swollen. improve.
However, it should be noted that if the swelling is accompanied by swelling to the eyes, swallowing to swallow, difficulty breathing, elevated body temperature, hot and red areas, you may need to go to the emergency department for evaluation.
In addition, activities such as flying, climbing, diving, and skydiving are not recommended within 7 days after oral surgery.
(4) Endless blood flow
After tooth extraction, oral surgery, or oral tumors, although it is not effective to stop the hemorrhage by correct bite of gauze or compression by yourself, you need to consider emergency assessment.
For a healthy person, gauze can almost stop bleeding after biting or pressurizing for about 30-40 minutes. After the gauze is removed, there will be some saliva and a little bit of blood in the wound, which will last about 2-3 days. At this point, try not to spit out because of nausea, and don't drink water with a straw. Try to swallow the saliva mixed with blood.
Note that some patients doze or fall asleep when they bite the gauze or pressurize. They think that there is pressure to stop bleeding, but they did not do it correctly. Please do it again.
Do not feel nauseous and deliberately remove the blood clots from the wound; do not use a straw to drink water or drink, because the negative pressure in the mouth using a straw will remove the clotted blood clots on the wound, and it is easy to continue to flow brig

If the above-mentioned principle of
hemostasis is indeed achieved, and the bright red blood from the wound or the
blood clots like "pig blood" that we drink pig blood soup from time
to time continue to be filled in the wound, it is recommended to go to the
emergency department immediately.
