Dental Emergency

Dental emergencies can happen when you least expect them—and when they do, you need a team you can trust. At Firestone Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics, we provide immediate dental care for children experiencing pain, trauma, or other urgent dental issues. Our experienced emergency pediatric dentists are here to help your child feel safe, supported, and pain-free—quickly.

We proudly serve families throughout Firestone, Frederick, and Dacono, offering same-day appointments for most children’s dental emergencies.

Common Pediatric Dental Emergencies We Treat

Our team is trained to manage a wide range of dental emergencies in kids, including:

  • Knocked-out baby or permanent teeth
  • Chipped, cracked, or broken teeth
  • Severe toothaches or dental pain
  • Infections, abscesses, or facial swelling
  • Soft tissue injuries to the lips, gums, or tongue
  • Loose fillings, crowns, or orthodontic appliances

No matter the cause, our goal is to provide fast, gentle treatment that relieves discomfort and preserves your child’s smile.

What to Do in a Dental Emergency

If your child experiences a dental injury or sudden pain, contact our office right away. Our team will help you assess the situation and schedule your child for a same-day emergency dental visit when needed.

In the meantime:

  • For a knocked-out tooth, try to keep the tooth moist (in milk or saliva) and avoid touching the root.
  • Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling or pain.
  • For severe pain or bleeding, seek immediate help by calling our office or visiting urgent care if we are unavailable.

Our office is equipped with advanced diagnostic tools and comforting amenities to make urgent care visits as smooth and stress-free as possible.
