Abstract
Medical emergencies and emergencies are frequent in dental practice. It is likely that all dentists will find themselves in this situation in the course of their professional career, therefore, it is very important to know the epidemiology, since it helps them to be prepared to carry out the appropriate and timely treatment. The general objective of all emergency care is to evaluate, treat and prevent any injury or disease, which, due to the intensity or severity of its manifestations, requires immediate attention. Hence, the dental emergency consists of the sudden appearance of a pathological oral-maxillofacial condition, which causes a spontaneous demand for care, whose treatment must be immediate, urgent, timely and efficient.
