Know What to Do for Your Child in an Emergency

When you bring your child to us for a dental emergency, our skilled team will go to work to save your child’s smile and make sure they get out of pain as quickly as possible. However, it’s important to know the steps to take before your child is seen in our office:

  • You can give your child an over-the-counter medication such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen to help with any pain or swelling. An ice pack or cold compress applied to the outside of the mouth will also help reduce swelling and discomfort.
  • If your child has an adult tooth that’s been completely knocked out, hold it only by the top of the tooth; avoid touching the roots. Place it in a container of salt water, milk, or saliva, and bring it with you to the office. A baby tooth will not typically be replaced and does not require the same care.
  • Stop any bleeding from your child’s lips, tongue, gums, or cheeks using a small piece of gauze or a moist tea bag. If the bleeding doesn’t stop in a few minutes, head to the nearest emergency room.
