Emergency dental care when you need it the most

The American Dental Association notes that the number of dental-related emergency room visits is on the rise. Most of these visits are “non-traumatic.” In other words, they’re usually due to chronic conditions that people learn to live with until the discomfort becomes so great that it can’t be tolerated anymore. Fortunately, by partnering with our experts in oral anatomy and function at the office of No Fear Dentistry, you stay ahead of distressing symptoms that can ultimately interfere with your day-to-day life. Furthermore, our teams in Madison and Sun Prairie, Wisconsin, are well-equipped to handle emergencies with proper care.

Facilities such as ERs and general urgent care are not equipped, nor do they have the focused training and expertise to address dental problems in a way that promotes your best long-term health and well-being. In fact, you may be provided with short-term “band-aids” in the form of pain-relieving medications – and at considerable cost. Or, due to distressing symptoms, you may be inclined to make decisions at the moment that are not in the best long-term interests of your smile, health, and happiness.

When it comes to emergencies, we want you out of pain as quickly and comfortably as possible. Things such as swelling in the face or neck, discharge or bleeding, facial trauma or damage to front teeth are considered emergencies to us. Also, if you are having pain that cannot be remedied with over the counter medications then we would like to see you as soon as possible. No Fear Dentistry strives to provide prompt care when emergencies arise.

We understand that in times of emergency it can be difficult to make a decision because of fear. No Fear Dentistry is here to help ease your pain and anxiety as it arises. When pain becomes panic and you are looking for a way out, we will always do our best to get you in as soon as possible to remedy whatever situation is at hand. While we would all like to be on top of our health taking preventative measures to mitigate emergencies, we know that things arise when it is least expected.

Do not hesitate to reach out if you are concerned about changes to your teeth and mouth. Call us without delay at (608) 836-5700 (Madison office) or (608) 837-4880 (Sunprairie office) today.

It’s also important to note that with some conditions, moments really do matter. All the time that might be spent at a non-dental facility could be better spent here with our teams that you know and trust and who have the appropriate knowledge, experience, and services to care for your teeth and mouth properly.
