Spokane has 24/7 pediatric emergency dental care. Whether your child has a toothache, a broken or knocked‑out tooth, or cheek swelling from a cavity, we’ll connect you to the next‑available kid‑friendly dentist. Fast care eases pain, protects growing teeth, and keeps school and sports on track.
Common Pediatric Emergencies
Toothache or sensitivity (often from deep cavities)
Broken or knocked‑out tooth from falls or sports
Cut lip, tongue, or cheek needing dental attention
Abscess or facial swelling

What Parents Can Do Before the Visit
Offer cold compresses and age‑appropriate pain medicine as labeled.
Keep the area clean with gentle salt‑water rinses (if age‑appropriate).
For a knocked‑out permanent tooth, hold by the crown, keep moist, and call immediately.
Do not reinsert a baby tooth — this could harm the adult tooth underneath.
Bring a list of medications, allergies, and insurance card if available.
What to Expect at the Pediatric Emergency Visit
Warm welcome & comfort first. We explain everything in kid‑friendly language.
Exam & X‑rays to pinpoint the problem.
Pain relief with gentle anesthetic; sedation options are available at select clinics.
Same‑day solutions whenever possible: protective dressings, fillings, nerve treatment for baby teeth, extraction if necessary, or trauma stabilization.
Home instructions for rest, diet, hygiene, and school notes if needed.
Follow‑up plan to finish definitive care.
Keeping Kids Comfortable & Safe
