What if my child has a dental emergency such as falling off his/her bike and injuring a tooth? Or, running into a coffee table?
First, evaluate for any additional trauma including the head, neck, and back. Next, examine your child for signs of responsiveness such as orientation to person, place, and time. For example, does your child react when called by his/her name? If your child appears alert and orientated with no additional trauma, call the dental office to schedule a same day emergency visit. If your child experiences trauma after or before normal business hours, please follow the directions provided by calling the office at 586-585-2402.
