Patients have often invested considerable time, money, and quite possibly “blood, sweat, and tears” in their dental work. This may be particularly true with the advent of both cosmetic and implant dentistry which involve long and complicated treatment plans that are often not covered by insurance. A patient’s investment in their dental work and the technical complexity of today’s dental appliances should not be taken lightly. In fact, the treatment of common dental emergencies was published in the Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America under the heading “Difficult and Advanced Procedures.”1
