Subcutaneous Emphysema from Dental Procedures | Discussion with a Florida Dental Malpractice Lawyer

In today's discussion, we're uncovering a grave but often neglected complication that can surface during dental procedures - Subcutaneous Emphysema. This occurs when air is forcefully injected into the submucosal spaces, which can lead to swelling and potentially life-threatening issues. Subcutaneous Emphysema arises when the wrong handpiece, using compressed air, is employed during a procedure. This compressed air, when directed into the tooth and surrounding tissues, can push air into facial spaces, leading to trapped air that can migrate to the neck and other body areas. So how does one identify Subcutaneous Emphysema? Tissue swelling often serves as the first sign, but this can easily be mistaken for normal post-procedure swelling or other complications. However, Subcutaneous Emphysema often presents with a unique symptom - a crackling sensation when pressing the swollen tissues. Other symptoms like fever or sweating could also point towards an infection. If Subcutaneous Emphysema is suspected, an immediate and thorough examination is vital. Symptoms like changes in vision, voice, swallowing, or breathing abilities, and chest pain could indicate severe complications warranting immediate emergency attention. These signs might suggest nerve compression, ischemic eye injuries, or even life-threatening air embolisms in the brain or heart. Management of Subcutaneous Emphysema usually involves conservative methods, given its self-limiting nature. Antibiotics are often employed to prevent potential infections arising from bacteria forced into tissues with the air. In severe cases, surgical intervention might be necessary. Patients with Subcutaneous Emphysema are advised against actions that increase intraoral pressure, like smoking or nose blowing. Pain associated with this condition can often be managed with over-the-counter pain medication. Recovery periods can range from a couple of weeks for less serious complications to significantly longer for more serious complications. If you or a loved one has experienced Subcutaneous Emphysema leading to serious complications, remember you may be entitled to compensation.
