3. INTRODUCTION
Emergency: Any urgent condition perceived by the
patient as requiring immediate medical or surgical
evaluation or treatment.
A sudden, urgent, usually unforeseen occurrence
requiring immediate attention.
28-1-10 3
4. Dental emergency :
An acute condition affecting the teeth, such as
inflammation of the soft tissues surrounding teeth or
past treatment complications of dental surgery
Endodontic emergency:
Defined as an unscheduled visit associated with pain
or swelling from pulpoperiapical pathoses requiring
immediate diagnosis and treatment
28-1-10 4
5. 1/3rd of all dental emergencies are from endodontic
origin
90% of emergencies with pain as symptom, the pain
is pulpal or periapical
In every year a number of on working days and
school days are lost due to dental pain in the world.

6. DIFFERENCE
Emergency
A condition requiring
an unscheduled office
visit with diagnosis and
treatment to be done
immediately , here the
visit cannot be
rescheduled because of
the severity of the
problem.
Urgency
Indicates a less severe
problem; a visit may be
scheduled for mutual
convenience of the
patient and the dentist

management
Diagnosis
Definitive treatment
Drugs
11. Diagnostic sequence
Obtain information about the patient’s medical and dental
histories.
Ask pointed subjective questions about the patient’s pain:
history, location, severity, duration, character, eliciting
stimuli.
Perform extraoral examination
Perform intraoral examination
Perform pulp testing procedures.
Use palpation and percussion sensitivity tests to determine
periapical status
Proper Interpretation of radiographs
Rapid and accurate diagnosis are important in the treatment of
endodontic emergencies
28-1-10 11
12. • SIGN - An objective evidence of a disease, such
evidence as is perceptable to the examining
physycian.
• SYMPTOM – It is a subjective , not usually visible to
others, symptoms are the patients experiences about
the illness, disease, or injury.
28-1-10 12
13. Most of the times patient
comes with chief
Complaint of
Pain,
Swelling,
Transient loss of function.
Esthetic abnormalities.
28-1-10 13
14. ACUTE PULPITIS
Acute reversible pulpitis:
It is a mild to moderate inflammatory condition of the
pulp caused by noxious stimuli in which the pulp is
capable of returning to the uninflammed state
following removal of the stimuli
28-1-10 14
15. SYMPTOMS
Short duration pain
Does not linger
Non tender to percussion
Might be difficult to localize
Might give an exaggerated response to vitality tests
No radiographic significance.
28-1-10 15
16. CAUSES
Caries close to the pulp
Premature contact
Recurrent caries
Occlusal trauma
Thermal Shock
Microleakage
Galvanic shock
Chemical irritation - sweet or sour food
28-1-10 16
17. Choice of Treatment (Grossman)
The best treatment is prevention,
Protective base under restorations.
Avoid marginal leakage.
Occlusal reduction.
Avoid excessive heat during cavity preperation
Palliative treatment
Zinc oxide eugenol interim restoration
If pain disappears – restoration
If not - Pulp extirpation.
28-1-10 17
18. ACUTE IRREVERSIBLE
PULPITIS
It is the persistent inflammatory condition of the
pulp, caused by a noxious stimuli
Abnormal sensation to cold
Abnormal sensation to hot
28-1-10 18
19. 28-1-10 19
SYMPTOMS
There is often a history of spontaneous bouts of pain which
may last from a few seconds up to several hours
When hot or cold fluids are applied, the pain elicited will be
more significant; cold may relieve the pain
Pain may radiate initially, but once the periodontal ligament has
become involved the patient will be able to locate the tooth
The tooth becomes tender to percussion once inflammation has
spread to the periodontal ligament
A widened periodontal ligament may be seen on the
radiographs in the later stages
20. Causes
Bacterial involvement of pulp through caries.
Other factors-chemical, thermal, mechanical, or
galvanic irritation
Reversible pulpitis may deteriorate in to irreversible
pulptis
28-1-10 20
21. Treatment
Anesthetize the affected tooth.
Apply rubber dam.
Prepare access cavity.
Remove the pulp from the chamber
Locate the root canal orifice.
Extirpate the pulp by sequentially. Instrumenting
with reamer or files or broaches to within 1mm
short of apex
28-1-10 21
22. Irrigate with sterile saline solution, NaOCl solution.
Dry the root canal with sterile absorbent points.
Insert a medicated cotton pellet moistened with an
obtudant.
Place a temp filling .
Relieve the occlusal trauma.
Analgesic if required
28-1-10 22
23. 28-1-10 23
PULPOTOMY
Conditions where pulpectomy is not possible in
multirooted teeth
Anesthetize the affected tooth.
Apply rubber dam.
Prepare access cavity.
Remove the pulp from the pulp chamber with
spoon excavator or round bur
Cotton pellet moistened with formocresol is
placed in the cavity and it is sealed with
ZnOE
24. 28-1-10 24
ACUTE ALVEOLOR ABSCESS
Localized collection of pus in the alveolar bone at the
root apex of the tooth following death of pulp with
extension of infection through the apical foramen into
the periapical tissue.
CAUSES
Bacterial involvement
H/0 of trauma
Mechanical or chemical irritation
Pulpitis or pulpal necrosis.
Exacerbation of chronic periapical lesion.
Endodontic-periodontic lesion ,deep pocket.
25. In severe conditions this odontogenic
infection can spread into the adjacent
soft tissues and leads to life threatening
complication called as cellulitis.
Bacteria mainly involving the acute cellulitis are
staphylococcus group
They produce hyluronidase, fibrolysin, collagenase
that breakdown the intercellular cementing substance.
This allows infection to spread rapidly
into the facial spaces and cause life
threatening situation
28-1-10 25
26. 28-1-10 26
• Simultanious bilateral spread of infection into
submandibular, sublingual and submental space s is
called as ludwigs angina.
27. PHLEGMON:
A massive cellulitis that does not go to suppuration
proceeds towards fast inflammatory infiltration of
subcutaneous tissue.
Skin is bluish in color because of
tissue cyanosis
Streptococcus haemolyticus
28-1-10 27
28. SYMPTOMS
Local reactions:
Tenderness of tooth
Severe throbbing pain
Swelling
Sinus tract
SYSTEMIC REACTIONS:
Elevated temperature
GI disturbances
Malaise
nausea
Dizziness
Lack of sleep
28-1-10 28
29. DIAGONSIS
Pain and presence of swelling
Mobility of tooth
Non responsiveness to pulp testing
Sensitiveness to percussion
Small or large or diffuse radiolucency in radiographs
28-1-10 29
30. TREATMENT
Local anesthesia
Isolation
Access cavity
If drainage does not occur, apical foramen is
enlarged to 25, 30 no size to obtain the drainage. –
apical trephination .(weine)
If time permits, complete cleaning and shaping of
the canals .
Irrigation with NaOCl.
Closed dressing given with ZnOE/ Placement of
intracanal medication
Adjustment of occlusion
If systemic involvement is present prescribing the
antibiotics and analgesics.
28-1-10 30
Apical trephination
31. BRITISH DENTAL JOURNAL VOL 198 NO. 12 JUNE 25 2005
• Incisional drainage is the first principle in
management of acute dentoalveolar infection.
• Penicillin-resistant bacteria are often present in acute
dental infection.
• The presence of penicillin resistant bacteria does not
adversely affect the outcome of treatment even if
penicillin is prescribed.
• It is likely that antibiotic therapy is often prescribed
unnecessarily in treatment of acute dental infection

32. TRAUMATIC AND
EASTHETIC EMERGENCIES
Traumatic injury to a tooth can cause
1 cracked crown
2. fracture crown
3. fracture root
It can be broadly classified as
1. Crown fracture
2. Root fracture
28-1-10 32
33. CRACKED TOOTH
SYNDROME
Incomplete fracture of a vital posterior tooth that involves the
dentin and occasionally extends into the pulp
A fracture plane of unknown depth and direction passing
through tooth structure that if not already involving, may
progress to communicate with the pulp and
or periodontal ligament
30-50 years of age.
Mandibular 2nd molars > Mandibular 1st
molars > Maxillary premolars
Men = Women
28-1-10 33
34. Two classic patterns of crack formation
1. Crack is centrally located and following the dentinal
tubules may extend to the pulp
2. Crack is more peripherally directed
and may result in cuspal fracture
28-1-10 34
35. Symptoms:
Sensitive to hot and cold
Pain upon biting and rapidly ceases after
relieving the pressure
Diagnosis:
Thorough dental history.
History of trauma,
Clenching or bruxism and chewing habits.
28-1-10 35
36. Examine the teeth with an explorer
Check hot and cold sensitivity tests. If a sharp pain is
felt with temperature, and the pain rapidly diminishes
with removal of the stimulus, - fracture is more likely
present.
Probe the gum tissue for pockets
Check for a cracked filling, removal of filling help
to visualize the crack

28-1-10 56
57. On the basis of level of root fracture in
relation to various horizontal plane of
periodontium
• Class 1:fracture line nearing the
gingival attachment.
• Class 2: fracture line extends below
the level of the attached gingiva but
not below the alveolar crest
• Class 3: fracture line with in the
coronal one third of the root, but
below the level of alveolar crest
• Class 4: when fracture line extends
below the level of the alveolar crest,
but with in middle third of the root

60. Treatment
Non surgical
No mobilty – no treatment
Mobile coronal fragment – repositioning
stabilization (4-6weeks)
Nonseparated segments: Root canal therapy for both the
segments and stabilization with interradicular splints
Separated segments: RCT for coronal segment only (apical
segment with vital tissue) . (cohen& burns)
28-1-10 60
61. 28-1-10 61
Surgical treatment (weine)
Apical 1/3rd fractures: rct of coronal segment only, apical
segment is left, it may heal, resorb in most instance does
not cause any problem.
Middle 1/3rd fractures: placement of cr-co pin joining
coronal and apical segment.
62. VERTICAL ROOT FRACTURE
Etiology:
1. Physical traumatic injuries
2. Occlusal prematurities
3. Para functional habits
4. Resorption
5. Iatrogenic factors
Placement of posts
Forceful insertion of large sized files into
the canal, Vertical condensation
28-1-10 62
65. 28-1-10 65
Periodontal examination:
Narrow deep isolated pocket – probe movement from
side to side is restricted
Radiographic examination:

67. LUXATION
Abnormal mobility of the tooth with in the socket
with or without displacement as a result of trauma or
injury
Five types of luxation injuries (Andreasen)
Concussion
Subluxation
Extrusive luxation
Lateral luxation
Intrusive luxation
28-1-10 67
68. 28-1-10 68
Concussion : injury to supporting structures without
abnormal loosing or displacement
Subluxation: injury with abnormal
loosing
Extrusive luxation: partial displacment
of the tooth out of its socket
Lateral luxation: eccentric displacement
with fracture of alveolar socket
Intrusive luxation: displacement of
tooth deeper into the alveolar socket
Intrusion
70. TREATMENT
Concussion: requires only
relieving pressure by selective
grinding
Subluxation: occlusal relief
and splinting for 7-12 days
Extrusive luxation: reposition
and splinting it for 2-3 weeks
28-1-10 70
71. 28-1-10 71
Lateral luxation: reposition and splinting it for
15 days
Intrusive luxation:
1. repositioning immediately
2. wait and see with the hope that the tooth will re erupt
on its own
72. EMERGENCIES WHEN THE
PATIENT IS UNDER
TREATMENT (FLARE UP)
Etiological factors
High filling
Micro leakage
Micro exposure of pulp
Thermal or mechanical injury during cavity
preparation or an inadequate lining under metallic

28-1-10
75
76. JCDA March 2003 vol 69 no 3. ( sackett)
1. Grade A – NSAIDS – preoperatively.
2. Grade B – Antibiotics – not recommended.
3. – NSAIDS used as a solution.
4. Grade C - Corticosteroids have a weak
5. evidence in pain management.
28-1-10 76
77. RECRUDESCENCE OF A
CHRONIC APICAL ABSCESS
Phoenix abscess
Chronic lesion become acute after
the first endodontic treatment.
Mechanism:
Recrudescence = breaking out
Facultative anaerobes multiply
rapidly after canal is opened by endodontic therapy
Canal instrumentation reduces some strains and some
virulant bacteria will grow rapidly
28-1-10 77
78. 28-1-10 78
Symptoms:
Mobility, tenderness to percussion and swelling
Treatment :
Incision and drainage through the root canal
Initial exudation: irrigation with warm saline
If drainage shows resistance- leave the tooth open
Closed dressing – 2-5 days later
If drainage is stopped –closed dressing
79. HYPOCLORITE ACCIDENT
Expelling of NaOCl beyond
the apex
This is due to locking the
needle of the irrigating
syringe in the canal and
forceful injecting the
irrigant
Symptoms :
Sudden extreme pain with
in mins after the irrigation
Swelling with in minutes
Profused prolonged
bleeding.
28-1-10
79
82. TREATMENT
Allow the bleeding to
continue ,
Antibiotics, analgesics
for five and three days
respectively .
Prescribing anti
histamines (since it
should be considered as
hypersensitive reaction)
28-1-10 82
83. ASPIRATION OR INGESTION
A serious problem, life threatening event.
Operator is responsible
Recognition:
Sudden disappearance of slipped instrument
Sudden violent gagging or spasmodic coughing ,
wheezing, decrease breathing sounds by the patient .
Radiographic evidence of presence of file in the
alimentary tract or airway
28-1-10
83
84. TREATMENT
Radiographic examination
• To know nature and size of the foreign body.
• Antero-posterior chest radiograph.
• Lateral chest radiograph.
• Lateral neck radiograph
• Supine abdominal radiograph.
28-1-10 84
85. The draw back with these radiographs is limitation for
radio opaque objects, in this scenario the following
are considered.
• Gastroscopy.
• Bronchoscopy.
• Computed tommography.
• Monitoring of physical signs.
• Test of stool for occult blood.
28-1-10 85
86. If the instrument is in pharyngeal pouch and
oesophagus try to locate and remove with blunt long
tweezer
Instrument is in lungs – surgical intervention.
Bronchus – causing problem – remove it surgically .
If it is in the alimentary tract monitor
radiographically and physical signs.
Advice the patient to take fibre diet so that it provides
better movement.
Usually it passes in faeces, if not remove surgically.
Prevention of these accidents is done by the universal
use of rubber dam and using a dental floss tied to the
instrument.

At the time of ingestion
Lower part of stomach.
3 Hrs after , in small
intestine
2nd day, in the caecum
of large intestine.
3rd day no evidence
of instrument.
88. PREVENTION OF FLARE UPS
Proper diagnosis
Determination of correct working length
Radiographs
Apex locaters
Complete extirpation of pulp
Proper Irrigation
Aviod filling too close to radiographic apex
28-1-10 88
89. 28-1-10 89
Perform apical trephination only if necessary
Reduce the tooth from occlusion if apex is severely
violated by over instrumentation
Placement of intracanal medicament
Prescription of mild analgesics and antibiotics whenever
condition warrants it
91. MANAGEMENT
Occlusal correction and removal of high points in
the restoration
Prescription of analgesics and, if the pain is more
severe and infection is present, antibiotics
An attempt at removal of the root filling and
repreparation of the root canal
Periradicular surgery
