New to the area and needed a new dentist for our family. Was happy we could all go to the same place. My boys both felt very comfortable and were treated wonderfully by all staff and Drs. The dentist did a good job explaining things and answering questions. Emily was fantastic with my youngest son. Will definitely continue to take my family to comfort dental.

Our child had a horrible time with their first dentist visit at another dentist. The staff and the dentist were amazing with our child. Our child was never afraid of them and our child really enjoyed the visit and asked when we were coming back. Thank you!

We had the best experience today. My 10 year old said this was the “best dentist” office and my 3 year old had his first PLEASANT dentist appointment! My boys loved the TVs on the ceiling and loved getting balloons after their visit. Everything was truly about comfort. Erin and everyone in the office was great and patient!

Common Dental Emergencies We Treat

We understand that dental emergencies can be frightening. Here are some of the most common emergencies we handle:

Knocked-Out Tooth

Time is of the essence when a tooth is knocked out. We provide immediate care and guide you on how to possibly save the tooth, helping to avoid long-term complications.

Severe Toothache

A toothache can cause a lot of discomfort. Our team works quickly to determine the cause of the pain and provide fast relief to help your child feel better.

Broken or Chipped Tooth

Whether it’s from a fall or a sports injury, we treat broken or chipped teeth with care. We focus on repairing the tooth while ensuring your child is as comfortable as possible.

Dental Abscess

If your child has an infection in their teeth, it’s important to seek treatment quickly. We treat abscesses promptly to prevent the infection from spreading while keeping your child calm and comfortable.

What to Do in a Dental Emergency

As a parent, it’s important to stay calm during a dental emergency. Here’s what you can do:

Step 1

Stay Calm and Assess

Keep your child calm and check for visible damage or bleeding. A calm parent helps reduce anxiety and stress in emergency situations.

Step 2

Contact Our Office

Call us immediately for guidance. Our team will provide instructions and arrange for prompt care during our extended hours (7 AM - 5 PM, Monday-Friday).

Step 3

Follow First Aid Steps

If there’s swelling, apply a cold compress. Gently clean the affected area with warm water while you wait to see us.

Prevention Tips to Avoid Dental Emergencies

  • Protective Gear: Ensure your child wears a mouthguard during sports to prevent injuries to their teeth.
  • Regular Checkups: Routine dental visits allow us to catch potential problems early, preventing them from turning into emergencies.
  • Early Intervention: If your child is experiencing tooth pain or discomfort, don’t wait—early treatment can prevent an emergency situation.

We accept various payment methods including cash, credit cards, and CareCredit to make emergency care affordable and accessible for families.

While our office hours are Monday-Friday from 7 AM to 5 PM, we provide after-hours instructions when you call our office for guidance.

What constitutes a true dental emergency?

Serious pain, knocked-out teeth, large chips or cracks, and signs of infection are all considered dental emergencies requiring immediate attention.

Is sedation safe for children during emergency procedures?

Yes, we offer safe sedation options that are tailored to your child’s needs and medical history to ensure their comfort during the procedure.

How quickly should I seek emergency dental care for my child?

For urgent issues like knocked-out teeth or severe pain, seek care immediately. We strive to see emergency cases the same day.

How can I prevent dental emergencies?

Regular check-ups, wearing protective gear during sports, and addressing dental issues early can help prevent many emergencies.

Does insurance cover emergency dental visits?

Most dental insurance plans cover emergency care. We accept major providers, including Delta Dental, Humana, and Aetna, and will assist in verifying your benefits.
