The emergency dentistry process

1

Initial phone call

If your child has a dental emergency, start by calling our office. We offer same-day emergency care during regular office hours for all patients, whether you’re new or established. Our team will help assess the situation over the phone and determine if immediate treatment is needed. For existing patients only, we also provide after-hours support. If your child’s emergency occurs outside of business hours, you can reach our on-call doctor through our emergency voicemail system for guidance and care.

2

In-office evaluation

Once your child arrives, we’ll perform a thorough but gentle exam, take any necessary X-rays, and identify the cause of the problem. We always communicate clearly with parents about the treatment plan and any options available.

3

Treatment and follow-up

We provide fast, effective treatment to relieve discomfort and protect your child’s dental health. Our goal is to stabilize the issue and follow up with any additional care as needed, making sure your child leaves feeling better and supported.

Frequently asked questions

Any dental situation causing extreme pain, bleeding, or trauma to the mouth could be considered an emergency. Common examples include knocked-out teeth, severe toothaches, abscesses, or injuries from falls or sports. If you're unsure, give us a call and we’ll help guide you.

Try to find the tooth and gently rinse it with water, avoiding the root. If possible, place it back in the socket or store it in milk. Call us right away, and we’ll give you instructions and arrange for an urgent appointment.

Yes, our after-hours voicemail connects directly to Dr. McComb’s cell phone for true dental emergencies. We’re committed to making sure our patients have access to help when they need it most.

"A huge thank you to the amazing staff here at Explorer Kids Dental. My mom raved about how lovely you all were and made my kids feel so comfortable. The dentist is not their favorite appointment so I greatly appreciate the efforts that were made by your team."

"I worked in children's dentistry for about 10 years before moving on and the standard of care that this office offers is absolutely outstanding! They get on the kids level and really talk to them. The front office has never steered me in the wrong direction and I’ve never had any surprises."

"Explorer Kids was amazing!! My 2 year old son struggled previously cooperating with our regular dentist so we sought out a pediatric dentist and they truly worked their magic!! He was so happy and they were able to get a cleaning and exam in. I’m so grateful!! Highly recommend."
