Emergency Dentistry FAQs
What constitutes a dental emergency for children?
A dental emergency includes any situation where a child experiences sudden pain, injury, or signs of infection. If your child has a tooth knocked out or broken or is suffering from severe tooth pain, it’s important to seek emergency dental care immediately.
