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.
The Benefits of Immediate Emergency Dental Care
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
When dental emergencies happen, quick action is essential to protect your child’s smile and health. If a permanent tooth is knocked out, getting the tooth back in the socket quickly gives us the best chance at saving the tooth. Trauma and other issues like tooth infections are highly time-sensitive, and delaying care can lead to long-term issues. Seeking immediate care helps prevent complications, ensuring your child stays on the path to a healthy, happy smile.
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 dental implant. 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.
Problem-Focused Exams
When issues arise, our team can perform problem-focused exams (also known as limited exams) to help address the issues. Limited exams allow us to focus on what’s hurting or injured so we can get your kiddo out of pain fast.
Same-Day Appointments
During a dental emergency, everything can happen so fast. If your child needs help right away, give us a call so we can prepare for a same-day appointment.
