Dental first aid

What

Outpatient dental clinics provide treatment for patients with swelling, bleeding and facial injuries including tooth injuries. It only concerns urgent conditions and is performed through basic and the most simple treatments, e.g. drilling, opening of inflammatory deposits, tooth extraction, etc. Under no circumstances can definitive treatment such as dental fillings be expected. Such treatments shall be subsequently carried out by a registered dentist. Emergency dental services are not used for treating patients who are not put at risk by delaying treatment (toothache without swelling or loose fillings or dental crowns).

How
