Dental emergencies can occur unexpectedly, especially in children and adolescents who are active in sports and play. Common dental emergencies include knocked-out teeth, chipped or fractured teeth, severe tooth pain, soft-tissue injuries, and orthodontic emergencies. Immediate dental attention is essential to relieve pain, prevent infection, and reduce the risk of long-term complications.
At Tooth Fairy Dental Care, we provide prompt and effective emergency dental and trauma care for children and teenagers. Our pediatric-focused approach ensures gentle handling, accurate diagnosis, and timely treatment to protect your child’s oral health and restore comfort as quickly as possible.
If your child experiences a dental injury or sudden oral pain, early evaluation by an emergency pediatric dentist can make a significant difference in treatment outcomes.
Playground Accidents
Children are especially prone to dental injuries during playground activities, sports, and outdoor play. Falls, collisions, or accidental impacts can result in chipped teeth, knocked-out teeth, lip or gum injuries, and jaw trauma. Prompt dental evaluation after a playground accident helps assess damage and prevent further complications.
Importance of Mouthguards
Mouthguards play a crucial role in preventing dental injuries during sports and physical activities. A well-fitted mouthguard cushions impact, protects teeth and gums, and reduces the risk of fractures or tooth loss. Custom mouthguards are especially effective in minimizing trauma during contact sports and active play.
First Steps in Case of a Broken Tooth or Knocked-Out Tooth
In the event of a broken or knocked-out tooth, staying calm and acting quickly is essential. The mouth should be gently cleaned to remove blood or debris. If a tooth is knocked out, it should be handled by the crown (not the root) and kept moist, preferably in milk or saline, until dental care is received. Immediate dental consultation significantly improves the chances of saving the tooth.
