We are concerned about your child's comfort and want to ensure they are not in pain. Therefore, please call us immediately if your kid has a dental emergency during business hours or after hours. However, if your kid may be experiencing a severe medical emergency, call 9-1-1 or transport them to the nearest emergency facility.
Your smile might be saved with the proper emergency dental procedures. However, it could be challenging to decide whether what you're going through is an emergency.
If you can't cure the pain alone or don't know why it's happening, persistent discomfort is a symptom of something wrong. You may also need to visit your dentist immediately if you engage in a particular activity resulting in mouth or tooth damage. Nothing should be coming out of your mouth.
Therefore dental crises such as fallen teeth or dental work also qualify. If you're still hesitant, give us a call so that one of our staff members may advise you on self-care and evaluate whether you need to be seen immediately.

Any dental injury may make an ordinary day hectic and agonizing. However, it's crucial to remain calm and remember that your dentist is here to help. Making the appropriate judgments in an emergency will be made simpler by taking a few deep breaths and evaluating the circumstance.
Next, apply pressure to the affected region with a sterile gauze strip if bleeding results from your oral accident or injury. Keep the gauze in place until the bleeding stops or until you arrive at our office.

Ibuprofen or acetaminophen, available over-the-counter, will help temporarily reduce any discomfort or swelling you may be feeling.
Aspirin and other blood-thinning drugs should be avoided, as they prevent clotting and make it challenging to regulate blood flow.
In addition to taking medicine, you can use an ice pack on the cheek or lip close to the afflicted region to reduce pain.

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that your child visit the dentist by his or her first birthday and for sure when that first tooth emerges. You can make that visit enjoyable and positive by informing your child of the visit and giving them some idea of what to
expect. Be sure to remind your child that the dentist and their staff will be friendly and explain all procedures and answer any questions. The less to-do about the visit, the better. Please don’t use words around your child that might incite fear. Words such as “needle”, “shot”, “pull”, “drill” or “hurt” should be replaced by words that we use to convey the same message, but are pleasant and non-frightening to the child.
We start by building trust
You are welcome to stay with your child during that first exam. However, during future appointments, we ask that you trust us and allow us to work with your child when you are not present. Our purpose is to gain your child’s confidence and overcome apprehension. This allows
us to build a trusting relationship with your child that will pay dividends in the years to come. For the safety and privacy of all patients, other children who are not being treated should remain in the reception room with a supervising adult.
