Emergency Pediatric Dentistry in South Jersey
Our team at Tooth Patrol Pediatric Dentistry is well-equipped to handle various pediatric emergency dental issues with compassion and expertise. Sudden toothaches or swelling around the gums are common indicators of underlying dental issues requiring urgent attention. At Tooth Patrol Pediatric Dentistry, we prioritize providing relief from pain while identifying its source effectively through thorough examination and diagnostic tools like X-rays when needed. Depending on the intensity of indications and their origin (e.g., cavities), interventions may encompass fillings, root canals, or removals. Our team ensures that your child feels comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process.
If a tooth is knocked out completely, try placing it back into its socket without touching the root surface; if not possible, store it in milk or saline solution until you reach our office.
Rinse your child’s mouth gently with warm water after an injury but avoid using any painkillers directly on the affected area as they might cause further damage.
