Dental care can be challenging for communities during an emergency or crisis situation. Patients may not have access to proper dental services or quality care, and dentists may have limited access to advanced equipment and supplies. In this 10-minute interactive guide, you will learn basic guidelines for proper care of traumatic dental injuries in an emergency including enamel fractures, crown and root fractures, luxation, and avulsion. This Ready to Go Mobile Guide was created in partnership with White Smile and was designed to benefit dentists and dental assistants working in an emergency or crisis situation.
