Our Family-First Approach
to Urgent Care

Urgent dental needs can feel overwhelming, but our team brings calm, clarity, and comfort when you need it most. With a gentle touch and a family-first mindset, we make sure your child receives fast, reassuring care right away.

Types of Dental Emergencies

  • Dental trauma from sports or accidents
  • Knocked-out or loose tooth
  • Facial swelling or signs of infection
  • Severe toothache
  • Chipped or broken tooth

Sedation Options for Emergencies

During urgent dental situations, we understand that fear and anxiety can make an already stressful moment feel even harder for children and parents.

Our board-certified pediatric dentists are fully trained to provide safe, age-appropriate sedation options that help your child relax and feel comfortable while we address the problem quickly and gently.

Whether your child benefits from nitrous oxide, oral conscious sedation, or IV sedation with a pediatric anesthesiologist, we will recommend the option that ensures the safest, calmest experience for your family.

Hear From Our Happy Families

I am SO happy we found this practice. It was so clean, organized and aesthetically pleasing. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed by one of the dentists who was willing to answer any questions we had, even before my son got in the chair!
The whole staff was amazing, kind and kept me informed throughout the visit. I couldn’t recommend this practice more!

" For the first time in over eight years, we had an stress-free and sweat free dental visit! We came with our concerns and felt heard and validated! We are super excited and look forward to our next dental visit with a lot less anxiety and that is a huge win for us, both patient and parent! Sensory issues can be tricky, but we felt that our son was met at his level and compassion and care were at the forefront! Thank you Luce Tooth for outstanding patient care!"

"Such an amazing pediatric dentist office!! I brought my son in for his first ever dentist appointment and was a little nervous. This practice makes both child and parents feel so at ease and comfortable. The office is beautifully done and very clean. The dental hygienist (I forgot her name but so wonderful) and Dr. Scheps are amazing! Very happy with our choice to bring our son here."
