When I was 12, I chipped my front teeth. I have had caps since then and over the years, they have fallen off and one cracked when I bit into a chicken leg once. Fortunately, I was home and was only inconvenienced because it happened on a weekend. But what if I was traveling? How available is quality dental care where you travel? What would you do if a filling came out, a bridge broke or a cap came off?
A year ago, a travel clinic client told me she had been on a cruise ship when she had a dental malfunction. She went to the infirmary. They pulled out an emergency dental kit, made a temporary repair and charged her $200. She knew she could’ve made the repair herself but didn’t have the right stuff. She asked if emergency dental kits were available for sale. And they are. For about $25.
The dental emergency kit allows you to do basic, temporary repairs for most dental emergencies. There are several types on the market and most include tweezers, a dental mirror, floss, picks, cement, temporary fillings and topical and oral analgesics. This compact kit comes with full written directions and takes up little room and has a long shelf life.
Travel Health of New Hampshire carries one and it costs $25. Got caps? Get EDK- Emergency Dental kit.

That's true as for if such thing happen in a way of travelling or at some place where you don't have something to care it. then this becomes a big problem.

Dental emergency kit is definitely necessary, especially if you are traveling. It will not only help you fix your dental malfunction right away, but it will also keep your oral health in good condition wherever you are. It’s better to be ready, so that when oral problem occurs, you will not have a hard time looking for a dentist to fix it.
