Emergency Visit
Dental emergencies can be stressful for both children and parents. At Sunbeams Pediatric Dentistry, we provide fast, compassionate care to help children feel safe, comfortable, and pain-free.
What Is a Dental Emergency?
Emergencies can include toothaches, broken or chipped teeth, knocked-out teeth, swelling, infections, or injuries to lips and gums.
What Parents Can Expect
When you contact us, we provide guidance immediately, schedule a same-day visit if needed, evaluate the problem, and take any necessary X-rays to determine the best course of care.
Why It Matters
Prompt treatment reduces pain, prevents infection, and protects your child’s long-term dental health.
Why Timely Care Helps
- Relieves pain quickly
- Reduces risk of complications
- Stabilizes or repairs damaged teeth
- Prevents long-term dental issues
Comfort & Care
We use calm voices, gentle techniques, and reassurance so your child feels safe and supported during the visit.
What Constitutes a Dental Emergency?
Most dental emergencies fall into one of three main categories:
- Health
- Function
- Aesthetics
Are you unable to eat, or do you have a chipped front tooth that’s too embarrassing to face work or school? If so, you need an emergency dentist who can see you as soon as possible, ideally the same day.
Some of the most common dental emergencies we treat include sharp or broken teeth, gum swelling, pain, and hypersensitivity. Other frequent issues include soft tissue lesions, such as ulcers under dentures, abscessed teeth, and traumatic injuries. Our team is here to provide prompt and compassionate care when you need it most.
