Abstract
A medical emergency is a serious concern in the dental office. It may lead to
a life and death situation, and prompt early response has a profound effect on the
morbidity and mortality of the patient. A dental surgeon is expected to be a first
responder in any medical emergency until appropriate medical help arrives. The office
staff should be adequately trained and assigned proper individual roles in an emergency
to ensure a smooth and efficient response. They should have basic knowledge of
resuscitation and drugs used in emergencies. The dental clinic should be equipped with
a basic armamentarium and drugs cart.
