Dental Emergencies: Milwaukee Wisconsin Dentist Tony Cigno Publishes New Article Explaining What Constitutes a Dental Emergency

Tony Cigno, Wisconsin family dentist, outlines the definition of a dental emergency, examples of dental emergencies, and the protocol for managing dental emergencies.

Milwaukee, WI — May 12, 2016 — Wisconsin Dentist Tony Cigno recently published a new article, “Dental 911: What Constitutes A Dental Emergency?”  

In the article, Dr. Cigno, Milwaukee family dentist, leads by explaining how to know if you are dealing with a true dental emergency and dental emergencies.

As he says, “A dental emergency is harm or injury to your mouth and/or teeth that requires immediate attention from a professional dentist and – if left untreated until “regular office hours” – could result in permanent injury or disability.”

He then goes on to share examples of dental emergencies such as a tooth that is knocked completely out, or out of alignment, and a tooth that is cracked or fractured.

These would be true dental emergencies that need to be dealt with right away.

He summarizes a dental emergency generally consists of a situation where a tooth has been lost, there is imminent danger of the tooth being lost, or there is a problem with the tooth that signals infection.

In such cases, he urges the reader that emergency dental treatment should be pursued quickly and without haste to prevent additional or further damage, injury, or illness.
