Abstract
Dental emergency varies from toothache to trauma of oromaxillofacial area. Recently, the number of emergency cases after dental treatment is increasing because surgical treatments such as implant installation rise. Dental emergency patients have been looking for emergency room of general hospital and they could be treated only when the dentist of night duty exists. Although there are many analyses on the dental emergency patients visiting general hospitals, research on the dental treatment only has not been provided enough. We anticipated different aspects between the dental emergency patients visiting independent dental hospital and general hospitals. We analyzed dental emergency patients' chief complaints and received procedures for almost 1-year period in Won-Kwang dental hospital in Dae-jeon where there had been no dental emergency settings. With this 1574 patients' result, we tried to find appropriate treatment plans regarding dental emergency patients occurring at night and holidays.
