Keys to Preventing Dental Emergencies

While there’s no way to completely avoid experiencing a dental emergency, however, there are a few preventive measures you can take to reduce the chances you’ll end up in your emergency dentist’s treatment chair, including:

  • Brushing twice each day and flossing daily.
  • Visiting your dentist every six months for checkups and cleanings.
  • Quitting using tobacco products.
  • Not biting down on hard items, like ice, pens, etc.
  • Wearing a protective nightguard if you grind your teeth.
  • Wearing a protective mouthguard if you play contact sports.
