When a mouth injury happens at home or at play, parents need calm directions fast. Call our McPhillips Street clinic and tell us what you are seeing.
Let's find a time
There is blood, there are tears, and a tooth looks wrong. If you are an Amber Trails parent reading this with a child beside you, take a breath and check first for anything that needs a hospital rather than a dental clinic. If not, phone Winnipeg North Dental.
The first thing to establish is whether the tooth is a baby tooth or an adult one, because the advice differs. Tell us how the injury occurred and what you can see. We’ll ask a few questions to judge how soon your child should be assessed at our McPhillips Street clinic in Winnipeg.

This one detail changes what you should do, so mention it when you call if you know.
A phone conversation gives you something practical to do while care is being sorted out.
Anything you want to understand about the injury or the next stage is fair to ask the dentist.
Children’s mouths can hold baby teeth and adult teeth at once. Knowing which one has been hurt is a useful starting point, and the clinic can help if you cannot tell.
Resist the instinct to push it back into place, because a baby tooth should never be reinserted.
Time matters here, as an adult tooth can sometimes be replanted. Contact a dentist immediately.
A serious injury changes the order of things. For trouble breathing or swallowing, severe facial swelling, bleeding you cannot control, any loss of consciousness or a major facial injury, call 911 or go for emergency medical care.
Knowing the general shape of the visit lets you prepare your child in simple words. The details depend on the injury and how your child is feeling.
Request your visitWe start with the accident itself, including when it took place, where the tooth was struck and any symptoms that have appeared since.
The dentist examines the injured area and may suggest an X-ray if it would show something an ordinary look cannot.
Immediate steps can include easing discomfort, handling a sharp edge or stabilizing the tooth, as your child’s situation requires.
You hear the diagnosis, the possible options and whether a further appointment makes sense for your child.
If the tooth has broken, have your child rinse gently, collect any pieces you can find and avoid chewing on that side. A cool compress on the outside of the face can help if swelling develops.
Simple, honest words usually work well with children, such as telling them the dentist is going to look at the tooth and help work out what it needs.
Where you check in at our McPhillips Street clinic.
It is hard to look calm when your child’s mouth is bleeding, and nobody expects perfection. Tell the dentist what your child is afraid of so that it can be taken into account.
Let us know if your child is anxious, has had a hard dental experience or needs extra explanation.
Parents often worry about how an injury may affect the tooth later, and raising it is entirely reasonable.
When your child wants to know what is happening, ask if things can be described in words they will understand.
In the days after
Once the immediate scare is over, it is easy to assume everything is fine. Ask the dentist whether the tooth needs another look, and what you should be watching for.
Ask which changes in the tooth or the gum around it should prompt you to phone us again.
A repair or additional care may be recommended for a later visit, depending on what the dentist finds.
An injury can be a good moment to ask about routine children’s dental visits, if your child has not had any recently.
Once your child is settled and a new worry surfaces, picking up the phone is perfectly reasonable.

Helpful details about emergency dentistry in Amber Trails.
Ask our teamNo. Baby teeth should never be reinserted. Keep the tooth so the dentist can see it, and phone the clinic to describe what happened.
It is not always obvious, especially in the years when both are present. Tell us your child’s age and what you can see, and we can help you think it through on the phone.
Go to emergency medical care or call 911 if there is trouble breathing or swallowing, severe swelling in the face, uncontrolled bleeding, a loss of consciousness or a serious injury to the face. Otherwise, start by calling a dentist.
A chip may still leave a sharp edge or a tooth that is vulnerable, and only an examination can reveal how far the damage goes. Save the piece and give us a call.
For an injury or pain, please phone (204) 338-3003. Form requests are for matters that can wait, and each one still needs confirming by the clinic.
