Emergency or After-Hours Dental Care for Kids
What Is an Emergency Pediatric Dentist?
An emergency dentist is an oral healthcare provider who treats patients needing immediate care, since accidents and mouth injuries don’t always happen within regular office hours.
What Does Emergency Dentistry Treat?
Parents bring their children to an emergency dentist for a number of reasons, including:
- Cracked Teeth
- Broken Teeth
- Abscessed Teeth
- Loose Teeth
- Severe Tooth Pain
- Knocked-Out Teeth
Many of these issues can’t wait, so it’s essential to reach out to an emergency dentist the moment they occur, whether it’s day or night, a weekday or a weekend. Many emergency practices are open 24/7, and if a dentist isn’t available right away, they’ll do their best to see your child within 24 hours. They’ll also provide instructions for caring for your child’s oral health until you’re able to see an emergency dentist.
