Understanding Dental Emergencies
Dental emergencies in children can range from toothaches and broken teeth to injuries involving the mouth and jaw. Prompt action is essential to prevent further damage and alleviate discomfort.
Why Address Dental Emergencies Promptly?
Types of Dental Emergencies in Pediatric Dentistry
Common dental emergencies in children include:
- Toothaches
- Knocked-out or displaced teeth
- Fractured or broken teeth
- Soft tissue injuries to the gums, lips, or tongue
- Objects lodged between teeth
What to Do in a Dental Emergency
- Remain calm and reassure your child.
- Assess the situation and determine if immediate medical attention is required.
- If a tooth is knocked out, handle it by the crown (top part) and rinse it gently with water. Try to reinsert it into the socket if possible, or place it in milk or saliva until you can see a dentist.
