Because of that, you\u2019re already not in a good mood, but then, out of\nthe blue, an intense pain shoots through one of your teeth. You take some ibuprofen,\nbut even that doesn\u2019t seem to help. Should you call your emergency dentist in\nFargo? Or are you better off going to the emergency room? Here is why it\u2019s much\nbetter to contact your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cstonedentalfargo.com\/emergency-dentistry.html\">dentist<\/a>\ninstead of going to the ER. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Should You Visit Your Dentist Instead of the ER?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many reasons why it\u2019s more beneficial to see your\ndentist instead of an emergency room doctor, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Because emergency rooms are more populated with people\nwith various health conditions than your dentist\u2019s waiting room, you are more\nlikely to catch other people\u2019s germs in the ER. That could include the\ncoronavirus. <\/li><li>Hospitals and emergency rooms are already (or rapidly\non their way to becoming) overloaded with COVID-19 cases. Sometimes, they won\u2019t\nhave room in their building or time in their schedule to see you quickly\nenough. <\/li><li>Believe it or not, most dentists are still open\nfor taking emergency patients during these times. <\/li><li>While the staff at the emergency room are\nmedical professionals, they don\u2019t have the kind of necessary specialized\ntraining to deal with specific dental emergencies, unlike your dentist. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When Should You Go to the Hospital?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Certain medical cases require that you visit the hospital\ninstead of the dentist. That includes when you have severe swelling that\nobstructs your airway, intense bleeding that doesn\u2019t stop after 15 minutes, or\na dislocated or broken jaw. These cases are often considered life-threatening\nand should be addressed by a doctor at a hospital as soon as possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What If Your Dentist\u2019s Office Is Closed?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your dentist is closed, it\u2019s perfectly fine to go to the\nER, but only as a last resort. Before you go, make sure to call your dentist\nand leave a voicemail detailing your condition and telling them you\u2019re visiting\nthe ER. That way the office can get back to you as soon as they open again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oftentimes, the staff at the ER will be able to prescribe\npainkillers or antibiotics to treat your immediate problem. However, just\nbecause you\u2019re no longer in pain doesn\u2019t mean you don\u2019t need to see your\nemergency dentist in Fargo. You should still come into your dentist\u2019s office\nwhen it reopens to determine whether you need additional treatment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cstonedentalfargo.com\/dr-stacy-goodwill.html\">Dr. Stacy\nGoodwill<\/a> has more than 20 years of experience working in the dental field,\never since she graduated from the University of Nebraska College of Dentistry.
