A pediatric dental emergency requires immediate attention from our caring dentist and team. We understand that you cannot always predict when your child will need urgent dental care. If your child experiences a dental emergency in Boise, Idaho, please contact State Street Dental immediately at 208-939-1700. We will arrange for your child to see Dr. Gregory Davis as soon as possible to receive the necessary care.
We handle a variety of pediatric dental emergencies, including:
- Severe, persistent toothaches or other types of tooth pain: This could indicate an infection or other serious dental issue that needs prompt treatment.
- Lost dental restorations, such as fillings or crowns: If your child has received a filling, crown or other restoration, it is important to address the issue of a lost restoration quickly in order to prevent further damage or discomfort.
- Damage to the soft tissues of the mouth: Injuries to the tongue, cheeks, lips and gums can be painful and may require stitches or other interventions to heal properly.
- Cracked or fractured teeth: These injuries can expose the inner layers of the tooth, leading to pain and infection if not treated promptly.
- Chipped or broken teeth: Immediate care can help restore the tooth’s function and appearance.
- Partially or fully knocked-out teeth: Quick action can often save a knocked-out tooth if it is handled correctly and brought to us immediately.
If your child suffers from any of these conditions or another type of dental emergency, please contact our office. Our team will provide instructions on how to care for your child’s dental issue until you can come in.
If your child has sustained head or neck trauma, it is crucial to visit the emergency room before coming to us, even if there is also damage to their smile. Head and neck injuries can be serious and even life-threatening and require immediate medical attention.
