Right now

What should you do in the first few minutes?

Stay calm

Your child takes their cue from you. Reassure them.

Stop the bleeding

Press gently with clean gauze or a damp cloth for several minutes.

Adult tooth out

Hold it by the crown, rinse in milk, put it back or keep it in milk.

Baby tooth out

Do not put it back. It can damage the adult tooth underneath.

Swelling

A cold compress on the outside of the cheek.

Then call

(02) 9649 6468, straight away.

Knocked-out teeth

Is it an adult tooth or a baby tooth?

A knocked-out adult tooth is a true emergency. Pick it up by the crown, the white part, not the root. Rinse off dirt with milk, do not scrub it, and slot it back into the socket if you can, with your child biting gently on a cloth. If it will not go back, keep it in milk, not water and not dry, and call immediately.

A knocked-out baby tooth is different: do not put it back, because it can damage the adult tooth developing underneath. Comfort your child, control any bleeding, keep the tooth, and call for advice. A knocked-out tooth: the first hour →

First aid

What should you do for the most common emergencies?

Toothache

Rinse with warm water, floss gently either side of the tooth, and give children’s pain relief as directed. No aspirin on the gum.

A chipped or broken tooth

Keep the pieces in milk, rinse the mouth, and cover a sharp edge with dental wax.

A cut lip, gum or tongue

Gentle pressure with clean gauze, and a cold compress to ease swelling.

Swelling or an abscess

Facial swelling needs prompt care. Call today.

Things people ask

What do parents ask in a dental emergency?

What should I do if my child's adult tooth is knocked out?

Pick the tooth up by the crown, not the root. If it is dirty, rinse it briefly in milk; do not scrub it. Put it back in the socket if you can and have your child bite gently on a cloth, or keep it in milk, and call Berala Dental on (02) 9649 6468 straight away. The sooner an adult tooth is replaced, the better its chance.

Should a knocked-out baby tooth be put back?

No. Putting a baby tooth back can damage the adult tooth developing underneath. Comfort your child, press on any bleeding with clean gauze, keep the tooth to show the clinician, and call for advice.

Can my child be seen today?

Often, yes. Children in pain or with an injured tooth are seen as urgently as possible, Monday to Saturday. Call (02) 9649 6468; not every available slot is released online.

How much is a children's emergency visit?

A children's emergency visit at Berala Dental starts with a $120 consultation, with the X-rays needed for the problem included. Any treatment is quoted before it starts. Please call first; cost should never delay a child in pain.

What can I give my child for toothache?

Children's pain relief as directed on the packet for their age and weight, a warm-water rinse, and gentle flossing either side of the sore tooth to clear trapped food. Never put aspirin or clove oil on the gum. Then call so the cause can be found.

When should I take my child to hospital instead?

Go to a hospital emergency department or call 000 for facial swelling spreading towards the eye or down the neck, trouble breathing or swallowing, a high fever with swelling, heavy bleeding that will not stop, or a head injury.
