        abstract = {In pediatric dental practice, emergencies don't happen every day, but when they do, things can escalate quickly because of children's unique needs. What starts as a minor incident in the dental chair can suddenly become serious—even life-threatening—if not handled properly. That's why every dentist treating kids needs solid preparation: thorough risk assessment, clear step-by-step management plans, and a well-stocked emergency kit ready to go. This review pulls together current knowledge on pediatric dental emergencies—how to classify them, manage them effectively, and prevent them whenever possible—all with the goal of keeping young patients safe.},
