We understand that you want to help relieve your child of pain or discomfort, but instead of treating the dental emergency at home, it is best to call our office as soon as possible for professional guidance. If your child is in distress, try your best to calm them. If there is bleeding, swelling, or a lost tooth, we encourage you to keep the area disinfected by gentle rinsing with water, applying a cold compress, and saving any dental pieces that may help restore your child’s tooth during treatment.
