I hope this site has  helped to answer some of your questions.  Your own dentist is the first person to whom you should turn in a dental emergency.  The links below may also be of interest.  I plan to add more dental sites that are informational and helpful in emergency situations.  Links will be added here as soon as these sites are available.

Frequently Asked Question:  Why is "abscess"  misspelled on the URL of this site?   
Answer:  This seems to be the way most people spell it!  Also, the name was available.
