What Is Pediatric Emergency Dentistry?

Pediatric emergency dentistry focuses on treating urgent dental issues that require immediate attention. These situations often involve pain, trauma, infection, or sudden changes to a tooth or the surrounding tissues. Emergency care is designed to quickly stabilize the problem, relieve discomfort, and prevent further damage. Our team evaluates each situation carefully and recommends the most appropriate, minimally invasive treatment for your child’s needs.

Types of Pediatric Dental Emergencies We Treat

Toothaches and Dental Pain

Persistent or severe tooth pain may indicate decay, infection, or trauma. Emergency care helps identify the cause and relieve discomfort as quickly as possible.

Chipped, Broken, or Cracked Teeth

Dental injuries can happen during sports, play, or accidents. Prompt evaluation allows us to protect the tooth and restore function and appearance.

Knocked-Out or Loose Teeth

If a tooth is knocked out or becomes loose due to trauma, immediate care is critical. In some cases, timely treatment may help save the tooth.

Swelling or Infection

Facial swelling, gum swelling, or signs of infection should be evaluated right away. Early treatment helps prevent complications and protects your child’s overall health.

Dental Injuries from Accidents or Sports

Falls, collisions, and sports injuries can damage teeth and surrounding tissues. Emergency care focuses on stabilizing the injury and planning appropriate follow-up.

The Emergency Dental Care Process

1

Immediate Evaluation

When you contact our office, our team will ask questions to understand your child’s symptoms and determine the urgency of the situation. Same-day appointments are often available for dental emergencies.

2

Focused, Minimally Invasive Treatment

Once your child is seen, we focus on relieving pain and stabilizing the issue. Treatment may include a filling, crown, pulpotomy, splinting, or other conservative care depending on the situation.

3

Clear Next Steps and Follow-Up

After treatment, we explain what was done, what to expect at home, and any follow-up care that may be needed. Our goal is to help your child heal comfortably and confidently.
