How We Treat Dental Emergencies

  • Schedule a same-day appointment. The first step is to call our office as soon as possible. This will allow us to work quickly in finding a time for you to bring your child in to see one of our skilled dentists. While waiting, we will give you first-aid tips to help your child manage their pain and other symptoms.
  • Undergo a professional examination. One of our dentists will perform a thorough examination to determine the problem area of your child’s smile. If necessary, we’ll also take digital images to get a more in-depth view of the affected tooth or teeth.
  • Review findings & treatment plan. After gathering our findings, we’ll develop a treatment plan and go over it with you so that you are aware of what we plan to do to address your child’s injury. We want to make sure you are on board with our recommendation.
  • Receive timely dental care. Apart from helping your child out of pain right away, we’ll begin to administer the appropriate method of treatment to repair their smile. We may provide antibiotics, a dental filling, a dental crown, pulp therapy, or even extraction.
