Emergency Pediatric Dental Care

Our dentist and team know that dental emergencies can happen at any time, often when least expected. Dr. Chelsea Wehr is here to provide swift and compassionate emergency dental care for your child, ensuring their comfort and health during unexpected situations. Our priority is to make these experiences as stress-free as possible for both you and your child. 

What Constitutes a Dental Emergency?

Understanding what qualifies as a dental emergency can help you respond appropriately. Common pediatric dental emergencies include:

• Toothaches: Severe or persistent tooth pain can indicate an underlying issue that requires immediate attention.
• Knocked-Out Teeth: Accidents can result in a tooth being completely dislodged. Quick action can sometimes save the tooth.
• Chipped or Broken Teeth: Trauma to the mouth can cause teeth to crack or break.
• Loose Teeth: For non-baby teeth, this can be a sign of injury or infection.
• Soft Tissue Injuries: Cuts or lacerations to the lips, cheeks or tongue. 

Steps to Take During a Dental Emergency 

1. Stay Calm: Keep your child as calm as possible and reassure them that they will be okay.
2. Contact Pediatric Dentistry of Flower Mound: Call us immediately at 972-724-1617. Our team will provide guidance and prepare for your visit.
