What Is a Dental Emergency?

Frequently asked questions
Learn more about how we create safe, empowering dental experiences for children with special healthcare needs.
What should I do if my child knocks out a baby tooth?
Unlike permanent teeth, a knocked-out baby tooth is not usually reimplanted. Call us right away so we can examine the area and ensure the underlying tooth structure and surrounding tissue are not affected.
If your child has knocked out a permanent tooth, time becomes a huge factor in our ability to reimplant the tooth. Recover the tooth if possible, holding it by the crown (not the root), and keep it moist in a container of milk or saliva, and call us right away.

Can a toothache be considered an emergency?
Yes—especially if the pain is severe, persistent, or accompanied by swelling or fever. This could signal infection, and prompt treatment may be necessary to avoid complications.
