Emergency Services We Provide

Dental emergencies can be caused by several factors such as improper care, grinding, biting too hard, or an accident. Whatever the reason, we can help. Our staff is qualified to handle a wide range of emergency services including care for:

• Toothaches. A toothache is commonly a symptom of a larger issue that is happening within your mouth. You’ll often notice these aches when there is a change in pressure or temperature, such as eating or drinking. It is important to have toothaches examined, no matter how small. Most toothaches will get worse over time, as well as the true cause of the aches.
• Gum pain. If you have pain in your gums, it is important to schedule an appointment as soon as possible. This is often a warning sign that there is a deeper issue within the gum tissue.
• Jaw swelling. If you notice any sudden swelling along your jaw, this could be caused by an infection. This infection is often found along the jaw bone and the supporting tissue. Dr. Kilcrease will be able to determine the cause of the infection, as well as make sure it is treated successfully.
• Filling and crown repair. Fillings and crowns play an important role in supporting teeth that have been treated for damage or decay in the past. On occasion, these can become loose, and may even fall out completely. When that happens, it is important to contact Monarch Dental- Fayetteville so that we can schedule you for a replacement as soon as possible. This helps to prevent any further damage.
• Extractions. A severely damaged or decayed tooth could pose a threat to your overall oral health. These teeth could cause an infection that could spread to your healthier teeth if left untreated. Removal helps to prevent any further damage and can alleviate pain associated with that tooth or teeth.
• Root canal. This procedure can help prevent the need for an extraction. A tooth that is damaged or decayed, and may have already needed a filling or crown, can be saved through this service. The connection between tooth and root is reopened, helping to retain your natural smile.
• Immediate emergency services. Accidents can send many patients in for emergency dental services. Sporting, auto, and other accidents can cause a hard impact to the face, jaw, and mouth. Teeth can become chipped, broken, cracked, or even completely knocked out. It is important to have an examination done as quickly as possible to determine the damage and offer the best option for recovery.

Preventing the Need for Emergency Care

Not all dental emergencies can be avoided, especially when accidents are involved. However, there are steps you can take to prevent a good number of potential emergencies. Many dental concerns happen due to decay and damage over time. Committing to good oral hygiene practices at home is the first step. Regular brushing and flossing can prevent the buildup of decay.

The next best step for your oral health is sticking to regular 6-month check-ups with Dr. Kilcrease. This provides you with a professional cleaning and helps us keep track of your overall dental health. Together, these steps can help catch any minor issues early. This allows for proper treatment long before the need for an emergency appointment would arise.
