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:
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.

We treat a wide range of pediatric dental emergencies, including:
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
If your child’s braces, retainers, or space maintainers break, we can make quick repairs to avoid injuries or setbacks in their treatment.
