When a Dental Problem May Be a Medical Emergency

Difficulty Breathing or Shortness of Breath
Swelling spreading into the floor of the mouth or throat (such as Ludwig’s angina) can compress your airway rapidly.
Difficulty Swallowing Saliva or Fluids
Inability to swallow your own saliva indicates dangerous constriction of the pharyngeal and submandibular spaces.
Rapidly Expanding Facial or Neck Swelling
Infections that expand rapidly across the jawline, into the neck, or toward the eye socket need emergency hospital intervention.
Uncontrolled Bleeding
Oral hemorrhaging that does not slow after 20 to 30 minutes of firm direct gauze pressure.
Severe Facial Trauma & Concussion
Suspected broken jawbone, inability to close teeth, loss of consciousness, nausea, or dizziness after an impact.
