Pediatric Dental Emergencies
Prompt, compassionate care when your child needs it most.
Dental emergencies can be stressful — especially when a child is in pain.
Our team is here to help.
What Is a Dental Emergency?
Severe Pain
Toothache that keeps them awake or causes crying.
Knocked-Out Tooth
A permanent tooth knocked out is a critical emergency.
Trauma / Infection
Swelling, bleeding, or broken teeth from falls/sports.
What To Do Before You Arrive
👶 Knocked-Out Baby Tooth
DO NOT reinsert the tooth.
Reinserting a baby tooth can damage the permanent tooth growing underneath. Apply pressure with gauze to stop any bleeding and call us immediately.
🦷 Knocked-Out Permanent Tooth
TIME IS CRITICAL.
Find the tooth. Hold it by the crown (top), NOT the root. Rinse gently in milk (do not scrub). Keep it in a cup of milk or saliva and come to us immediately.
Same-Day Emergency Appointments
We reserve time daily for pediatric dental emergencies. If your child is hurt, please call us immediately so we can prepare for your arrival.
