Objective: Describe periodontal emergencies in patients from the Northern Area of Sancti Spíritus.
Methodology: A retrospective longitudinal descriptive study was carried out from January to June 2023. 87 patients were selected who attended the Emergency Service of the Sancti Spíritus Provincial Teaching Stomatology Clinic in this period, with a diagnosis of periodontal emergencies.
