Kids’ dental emergencies
Accidents happen, and children are often the ones experiencing them. Whether it is a knocked tooth on the playground or a sudden toothache at home, dental emergencies need quick attention. Our team is ready to help families manage urgent dental care and ease discomfort as soon as possible.
Common dental emergencies for children include:
Knocked or chipped teeth
Severe toothache or swelling
Injuries to gums or soft tissues

If your child experiences any of these problems, contact our clinic straight away. Early treatment protects teeth and prevents further complications. In the case of a permanent tooth being knocked out, keep the tooth in milk and bring it with you to the appointment.

Frequently Asked Questions
about children’s dentistry in Perth
-
The program provides eligible children up to $1,000 in dental services over two years. It covers examinations, x-rays, fillings, extractions and preventive treatment.
For more information, check out the Services Australia website or give our friendly team a call.
-
Most children start losing their baby teeth around age six. By age 12, the final adult teeth usually appear. Regular visits help us monitor this stage of your child’s development.
-
Talk positively about the dentist, explain that we will “count their teeth”, and keep the visit simple. Some parents bring their child to watch a sibling’s check-up first to help create familiarity.
-
It is generally recommended that children visit the dentist for the first time by their first birthday or when their first teeth come in, whichever comes first. Your child’s oral health is our top priority. At this early age, your dentist can provide a good examination of your child's mouth and provide advice on preventative care to ensure their teeth remain healthy.
-
Prolonged use of a dummy can cause problems with teeth alignment and jaw development. Chat to our dentists if you want to learn more about how dummies are affecting your child’s teeth.
-
Most children can start brushing their teeth themselves at around age three or four. However, it's important to always supervise your child when they're brushing their teeth, even if they can do it themselves, to ensure that they are doing it correctly and are using enough toothpaste. You should also continue to brush your child's teeth for them until they are effective at removing plaque from their teeth.
-
If a tooth is knocked, damaged or causing pain, contact us immediately. Our team treats dental emergencies quickly, helping protect your child’s teeth and soft tissues from further problems.
-
Our paediatric dental services are designed to support healthy teeth and gums as your child grows. We provide comprehensive dental care, including check-ups, cleans, fluoride treatment, fissure sealants, fillings, treatment for tooth decay, and support for children who feel nervous about seeing the dentist.
Every appointment is handled with patience, compassion and care, so your child can build trust and confidence over time.
