Dental Emergency Out of Town: What Do I Do?
When it comes to travel–whether for fun or business–we all prepare in some way. We pack our suitcases with weather appropriate clothing and bring what we need for comfort and use. But there are some things that we can’t prepare for while we are out of town–like a dental emergency.
It’s not an ideal situation, but it is manageable! Most importantly, don’t panic. We can help!

How to Tell if It’s a Dental Emergency
First, let’s take a look at what qualifies as a situation that calls for emergency dental work or whether you can just simply grin and bear it until you arrive home and can see your local family dentist.
The most common type of dental emergency is an unexpected dental injury: a knocked out tooth, toothache, chipped tooth or broken tooth. You may also want to seek immediate attention if you experience any symptoms of tooth damage or mouth pain, such as:
- Dislodged crown
- Sudden inflammation in the mouth or gums
- Swelling, redness or painful gums
- Moderate to intense dental pain
- Increased tooth sensitivity or jaw pain
