FAQs about Emergency Dental Care

If your child knocks out a tooth, try to stay calm and act quickly. For a permanent tooth, gently pick it up by the crown (the chewing surface), not the root. Rinse it briefly with water, don’t scrub or remove any attached tissue.

If possible, place the tooth back into the socket and have your child bite down gently on a clean cloth to hold it in place. If that’s not an option, place the tooth in a container of milk or your child’s saliva and call us immediately. Fast action can often save the tooth.

For baby teeth, do not try to reinsert them, just contact our office right away so we can assess the situation and ensure the surrounding area is healthy and safe.

Tooth pain is a sign something isn’t right. If your child has a persistent toothache, swelling, or sensitivity, call us. Even small issues can quickly turn into bigger problems without accurate and timely treatment.

Yes. Even if there’s no pain, a chipped or broken tooth can expose sensitive areas and lead to infection. It’s best to have it examined immediately.

We encourage you to call ahead so we can prepare for your arrival, but we do our best to accommodate same-day emergency dental care visits for children in Wake Forest and nearby communities.
