What Makes Us Different
Your child should feel safe and empowered at the dentist, so we take a gentle approach everywhere we can. This method eases your child's immediate concerns but also helps build positive associations with dental care for the future.

The highest safety standards are always our top priority, and a stress-free experience comes closely after.

Frequently Asked Questions
If your child knocks out a tooth, stay calm and follow these steps:
- Locate the tooth and pick it up by the crown (not the root).
- If it's a permanent tooth, gently rinse it with milk or saline solution (don't scrub or use water).
- If permanent, and if possible, try to reinsert the tooth into the socket. If not, place it in a container of milk or saliva.
- Contact us immediately for an emergency appointment. Time is crucial in saving a knocked-out tooth, so aim to see us within 30 minutes if possible.
This advice is primarily for permanent teeth; for baby teeth that fall out from trauma, it's best to not attempt reinsertion but still contact us promptly for guidance.
Preparing your child for a potential dental emergency can help reduce anxiety and ensure better outcomes. Here are some tips:
- Keep our emergency contact information easily accessible. We recommend saving our phone number: (206) 452-2200
- Maintain regular dental check-ups to prevent emergencies and help your child feel comfortable in the dental office.
- Create a small dental first-aid kit with gauze, a small container, and our contact information. Teach older children basic first-aid for dental issues.
Dr. Tiffany and our team at The Little Smile Loft are always here to guide you through any dental emergency with our child-friendly, technologically advanced approach.
