Medical Emergencies in Dental Office - A Review
Journal Title: Journal of Dentistry and Oral Sciences - Year 2021, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
A medical emergency, no matter where it happens, demands immediate treatment. When it occurs in a dental set-up, it is expected of Dentist and his/her staff to have the basic knowledge to recognize, assess and manage a potentially life-threatening situation until the patient can be transported to a medical facility. For that, the staff in the clinic should be well trained to act accordingly in different types of medical emergencies that can occur at any given time. A mock drill can also be organized for their training purpose. This review article deals with different kinds of medical emergencies that can occur in a dental set-up and how that can be recognized and managed.
