A detailed case history can give us a clue towards potential medical emergencies that could arise. An effective management of an emergency situationin the dental office is ultimately the dentists responsibility.Although a number of studies have been carriedout to ascertain the need to store emergency drugs andequipments in dental offices 1, 2 very few studies are found in literature which assess the level of knowledge and competency of young dental graduates in managing medical emergencies .Downloads
