Child-Focused Approach<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Our entire practice is designed with children in mind. From our colorful, welcoming waiting room to our friendly, experienced staff, we create a positive and comforting environment for kids of all ages. We understand that dental emergencies can be scary, so we prioritize your child’s comfort and emotional well-being throughout the entire process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Specialized Expertise<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Our team is led by Dr. Barry Jacobson and Dr. Helen Weinberg, renowned pediatric dentists and orthodontists with decades of experience. Dr. Jacobson has dedicated his career to treating children with special needs, and Dr. Weinberg is a skilled orthodontist who can address a wide range of dental emergencies, including those related to braces and other orthodontic appliances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Comprehensive Services<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
We offer a full range of services for children, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- BPA-Free Fillings and Crowns:<\/strong> We use safe, durable materials to restore damaged teeth, ensuring your child’s long-term oral health.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Pulp Therapy:<\/strong> If the pulp (nerve) of a baby tooth is infected, we can often save the tooth with pulp therapy, avoiding the need for extraction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF):<\/strong> This non-invasive treatment can stop tooth decay in its tracks and reduce sensitivity, offering a safe and effective alternative for young children or those with special needs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Extractions:<\/strong> In cases where a tooth is severely damaged or decayed, we offer gentle extractions to alleviate pain and prevent further complications.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Space Maintainers:<\/strong> If a baby tooth is lost prematurely, we can create a space maintainer to prevent surrounding teeth from shifting and ensure proper space for the permanent tooth to erupt.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Orthodontic Emergencies:<\/strong> We can repair broken braces, adjust poking wires, and address other orthodontic issues promptly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
State-of-the-Art Technology<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
We utilize advanced technology, including digital X-rays and laser dentistry, to provide precise and efficient treatment while minimizing discomfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Focus on Prevention<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
We believe that prevention is key to maintaining a healthy smile. After your child’s emergency is addressed, we’ll work with you to develop a personalized preventive care plan that includes regular checkups, cleanings, and sealants to protect their teeth from future damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What to Expect During Your Child’s Emergency Visit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
We understand that dental emergencies can be stressful, so we strive to make the experience as smooth and comfortable as possible for both you and your child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- Immediate Attention:<\/strong> We offer same-day appointments for urgent dental issues, so you can get your child the care they need quickly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Warm and Welcoming Environment:<\/strong> Our friendly staff will greet you and your child with a smile, creating a calm and reassuring atmosphere.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Thorough Examination:<\/strong> Our experienced pediatric dentists will gently examine your child’s mouth, taking X-rays if necessary, to diagnose the problem and determine the best course of treatment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Clear Communication:<\/strong> We’ll explain the diagnosis and treatment options in simple terms that you and your child can understand, answering any questions you may have.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Pain-Free Treatment:<\/strong> We use painless injection techniques and local anesthesia to ensure your child’s comfort during any procedures.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Aftercare Instructions:<\/strong> We’ll provide detailed instructions for aftercare to ensure a smooth recovery and prevent future problems.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
What to Do in a Dental Emergency<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
While we always recommend contacting us immediately for any dental emergency, here are some general tips:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- Toothache:<\/strong> Rinse your child’s mouth with warm water and gently floss to remove any lodged food. If the pain persists, apply a cold compress to the outside of the cheek.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Chipped or Broken Tooth:<\/strong> Save any broken pieces and rinse your child’s mouth with warm water. If there is bleeding, apply gentle pressure with a clean gauze or cloth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Knocked-Out Tooth:<\/strong> Find the tooth and handle it by the crown (the top part), not the root. If possible, rinse the tooth gently with water and try to reinsert it into the socket. If that’s not possible, place it in a container of milk or saliva. Time is critical, so get to our office as soon as possible.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n
