Dental emergencies can be frightening—especially when they involve children. At Palisades Dental Care, we understand how overwhelming it can be for parents when a child experiences sudden pain, trauma, or infection.

Whether it’s a knocked-out tooth, unbearable toothache, or swelling, you can trust Palisades Dental Care to provide expert care using the latest technology and a child-friendly approach.

What Is a Pediatric Dental Emergency?

A pediatric dental emergency refers to any urgent situation involving the teeth, gums, or jaw that causes your child pain, discomfort, or poses a risk to their oral health. These may include:

  • Severe toothaches or dental pain
  • Cracked, fractured, or knocked-out (avulsed) teeth
  • Infections or swelling in the gums, cheeks, or face
  • Lost or damaged dental fillings or crowns
  • Injuries to the mouth from sports or accidents
  • Objects stuck between teeth

If your child is experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s essential to seek care as soon as possible. Delaying treatment can lead to worsening pain, further complications, and potential long-term effects on their oral development.

Common Pediatric Dental Emergencies We Treat

We treat a wide range of pediatric dental emergencies, including:

1. Toothaches

Persistent or sudden tooth pain may be due to decay, infection, or trauma. We’ll identify the source and provide immediate relief—whether through medication, pulp therapy, or extraction.

2. Knocked-Out (Avulsed) Teeth

If a permanent tooth is knocked out, time is critical. Gently rinse the tooth, place it in milk, and bring your child to our office immediately. We’ll assess the possibility of re-implantation and take steps to save the tooth if possible.

3. Chipped or Fractured Teeth

Whether it’s a fall or sports injury, we offer fast repairs using composite bonding, dental crowns, or other restorations tailored to your child’s needs and age.

4. Dental Infections or Abscesses

Swelling, fever, and gum pain may indicate a serious infection. We provide emergency treatments like drainage, antibiotics, and root canal therapy to protect your child’s health.

5. Soft Tissue Injuries

Cuts or tears to the lips, cheeks, or tongue can bleed heavily and may require sutures or medication. We’ll carefully clean and repair the wound while ensuring your child’s comfort.

6. Broken Dental Appliances

If your child’s braces, retainers, or space maintainers break, we can make quick repairs to avoid injuries or setbacks in their treatment.

My family and I have been coming here for years! I absolutely love the staff they have been amazing to me and my parents every single time. They are super flexible, attentive, and with amazing services. I had an implant done and it was a very smooth process. I also had a teeth whitening done and I am very satisfied with the outcome. Lastly, I chipped my tooth and the new looks identical to my old ones. Thank you for all you do!
