When your child is facing a dental crisis, time is of the essence. Immediate attention can make all the difference. Get in touch with us immediately to consult our experts and preserve that precious grin! Not sure if it's a dental emergency for your little one? Read on.
Why Should My Child Get Emergency Dental Care?
First off, immediate dental care can relieve your child's pain or discomfort. Issues like tooth pain, fractured teeth, and other oral issues can lead to severe discomfort disrupting their academics, extracurricular activities, and more. Getting professional help will alleviate their distress so they can get back to their regular schedule. You'll also prevent additional complications caused by leaving their condition untreated. Most importantly though, you'll find relief knowing your child's oral health is restored once more.

Why Emergency Dental Care May Be Necessary
Alleviation of Pain & Discomfort
A fractured tooth, a dislodged crown, or a throbbing toothache can lead to immense discomfort. The only solution to alleviate this pain is through professional dental care provided by an adept emergency dentist. After receiving treatment at our practice, your child can return to their daily activities without enduring pain or further distress.
Avoid Further Complications
Oftentimes, delaying medical help for your child can make their condition worse. For instance, if they have a tooth infection, early detection and intervention with a root canal or pulpotomy could potentially save the tooth. However, prolonged delays may result in irreversible damage to the infected tooth which might require extraction and pose serious health risks like sepsis - an extreme response to severe infection that can be life-threatening.
Save Time & Money
The quicker you seek emergency care, the more cost-effective your child’s treatment will be. For example; mending a broken tooth with a dental crown costs significantly less than removing it and replacing it with a space maintainer. If you consult with our dentist as soon as you notice any issue in your child's oral health, both time and money will be saved.
