Children’s Dental Emergencies

• Use lukewarm saltwater to rinse your child’s mouth. This helps to relieve pain and tenderness.
• To reduce swelling and uncomfortable twinges, apply a cold compress.
• Floss their teeth and check for any residual food residue.
• Do not feed your child aspirin or apply aspirin to the afflicted tooth or gums. This can only lead to more complications.
• Most importantly, schedule an appointment with your dentist.

• Use dental floss to get anything lodged between your child’s teeth out.
• Never attempt to free the trapped object with a metal, plastic, or sharp tool. Give us a call right away if dental floss is unable to remove the thing.

• To lessen or prevent swelling in your kid’s face, place an ice pack on the afflicted area and have your child rinse their mouth with warm saltwater.
• Find and save the broken piece of the tooth if you can.
• Right away, visit the dentist.

• Give your youngster a warm saltwater mouth rinse. (Eight ounces of water with half a teaspoon of salt)
• To minimise swelling, apply a cold compress.
• Find and hold the tooth in place. Do not touch the root; instead, grasp it by the crown.
• If the tooth is unclean, gently wash it for 10 seconds with lukewarm water; otherwise, let it alone.
• Reinsert a permanent tooth by gently biting down on a fresh piece of fabric.
• If it’s a baby tooth, don’t try to put it back in because doing so could harm the permanent tooth that is growing underneath.
• Put the tooth in milk, salt water, or saliva to soak it.
• Within 30 minutes following the injury, visit the dentist.

If your child bit their lip or tongue hard enough to cause bleeding, carefully wipe the injury with warm water and apply a cold compress firmly to the region to lessen or prevent swelling. If bleeding is present, gently press the area for ten minutes or until the flow stops.
