What are dental infections?

What are the signs of a tooth infection?

Symptoms of a tooth infection may include throbbing pain, tooth sensitivity, shiny, red or swollen gums, fever, and facial swelling. In the case of a tooth abscess, symptoms may also include discolored or loose teeth, bad breath or a bad taste in your mouth.

 

What causes a tooth infection?

Tooth infections are caused when bacteria enters the crown of the tooth, through the soft pulp interior, and through to the tip of its roots.

 

What antibiotics work for tooth infection treatment?

Amoxicillin, clindamycin, cephalexin, penicillin, and azithromycin can all treat a tooth infection. With K Health, you can chat with a doctor for $39 and get a prescription for the medication that is best suited for your infection.

What's the best antibiotic to treat a tooth infection?

Penicillin and amoxicillin are the most commonly prescribed antibiotics for tooth infections. When you chat with a K Health-affiliated clinician, they can assess whether one of those options is right for you, or whether you need a different type of antibiotic or treatment.

Can I use my insurance to pay for K Health?

Currently, we don't accept insurance to pay for K Health memberships, one-time Urgent Care virtual visits, or mail-order medication, but we keep our prices low to keep medical care accessible to everyone. In many cases, our prices are lower than your insurance copay would have been!

If your clinician prescribes you medication to pick up at your local pharmacy or orders bloodwork to a lab of your choice, you can use your insurance at those locations.
