Toothaches and tooth injuries

Larch & Finch Pediatric Dentistry treats toothaches and tooth injuries in children in Seattle, Washington.

Call us first. We make room for pain and injuries as soon as the day allows.

Overview

If your child has a toothache, a swollen face, or a chipped, loosened or knocked-out tooth, call (206) 555-0164 during office hours and tell us what happened. We make room for pain and injuries as soon as the day allows.

If a permanent tooth is knocked out, pick it up by the crown, not the root, rinse it gently with milk, put it back in the socket if you can, and call us right away. Never put a baby tooth back in. For heavy bleeding, trouble breathing or a hard blow to the head, call 911.

Frequently asked questions

What counts as a dental emergency?

A knocked-out permanent tooth, a swollen face or jaw, bleeding that will not stop, or pain that keeps your child from eating or sleeping. Call us during office hours, or 911 for trouble breathing or a serious head injury.
