We strive to make each and every visit to OUR office a FUN ONE! OUR office. AS well AS the the american Academy of pediatrics (AAP). The american dental association (ADA). And the american Academy of pediatric dentistry (AAPD) ALL recommend establishing a "dental home" for your child by ONE year of AGE. Children WHO have a dental home are more likely to receive appropriate preventive and routine oral health care. The dental home is intended to provide a place other than the emergency room for parents. YOU CAN make the first visit to the dentist enjoyable and positive. If OLD enough. Your child should BE informed of the visit and told that the dentist and their staff will explain ALL procedures and answer ANY questions. The less to DO concerning the visit. The better. We Also specialize in dental EMERGENCIES
TOOTHACHE: clean the area of the affected tooth. Rinse the mouth thoroughly with warm water or USE dental floss to dislodge ANY food that MAY BE impacted. If the pain still exists. Contact your Child's dentist. DO NOT place aspirin or heat on the GUM or on the aching tooth. If the face is swollen. Apply cold compresses and contact your dentist IMMEDIATELY. CUT or bitten tongue. LIP or cheek: apply ICE to injured areas to help control swelling. If there is bleeding. Apply firm but gentle pressure with a gauze or cloth. If bleeding cannot BE controlled by simple pressure. Call a doctor or visit the hospital emergency ROOM. KNOCKED OUT permanent tooth: if possible. Find the tooth. Handle it by the crown. NOT by the root. YOU MAY rinse the tooth with water only. DO NOT clean with soap. Scrub or handle the tooth unnecessarily. Inspect the tooth for fractures. If it is sound. TRY to reinsert it in the socket. Have the patient hold the tooth in place by biting on a gauze. If YOU cannot reinsert the tooth. Transport the tooth in a CUP containing the Patient’s saliva or milk. If the patient is OLD enough. The tooth MAY Also BE carried in the patient’s mouth (beside the cheek). The patient must SEE a dentist immediately! time is a critical factor in saving the TOOTH. KNOCKED OUT baby tooth: contact your pediatric dentist during business hours. This is NOT usually an emergency. And in most cases. NO treatment is NECESSARY. CHIPPED or fractured permanent tooth: contact your pediatric dentist immediately. Quick action CAN save the tooth. Prevent infection and reduce the need for extensive dental treatment. Rinse the mouth with water and apply cold compresses to reduce swelling. If possible. Locate and save ANY broken tooth fragments and Bring them with YOU to the DENTIST.
