Ultimately, long delays of dental treatment take us to a point of dental emergency which demands immediate attention and care, which often can end up in a heavy medical bill. It is always better to be prepared to face these emergencies so that a lot of dilemmas and confusions can be avoided.

When?
When to avail an emergency dental aid is purely dependent on the appearance of any ailment or the symptoms given by your body. Any of the following symptoms, or a combination of a few, can be a warning sign:

• Profuse or intermittent bleeding from any part of mouth
• Infectious pus in the region adjoining the gum
• A pain on the gum while chewing or while being exposed to a sudden change in temperature.
• A swelling on the jaw bones of face
• Severe pain on the jaws
• Toothache
• Uprooting of tooth, this can result in continuous bleeding.
• Broken tooth
• Breathing Difficulties

What to be done?
Most often, emergency dental care is a result of long postponing of routine dental care or ignorance of bodily warnings. This impose huge burden on the patients and their family in terms of money and time, apart from the physical troubles. A little time spent on planning and choosing an dental emergency insurance can save a lot of money and time and can help in timely medical intervention too.
• Much unlike other health emergencies, we cannot contact an emergency helpline numbers in case of a dental emergency. Hence, we have to rush the patient to hospital by ourselves and in case we cannot reach for his/her help immediately, we may even request some other person to take him/her to the hospital. Meanwhile, if we can reach the hospital before the patient arrives, we may even make arrangements for emergency dental care. Informing the hospital well in advance can save a lot of time.
Emergency dental insurances are covered in most of the ‘mediclaim’ packages availed through our employers and it’s always better to make a note of the dental hospitals in the proximity that accept these dental policies.
• In case of dental emergency care, even before reaching the hospital itself, it’s better to contact the mediclaim agent to inform about the situation.
• By becoming a member of certain mediclaim policies, you may access to a large number of procedures just by spending only a few pennies a day.
