$59 text visit

Tooth throbbing. Gum puffy. Text Chris.

I am Chris Woods, a Nurse Practitioner. Some dental abscesses fit a $59 text visit as a bridge. Many need a dentist the same day. A few need the ER. I will tell you which door you are on. A consult does not guarantee a prescription.

$59 flat · no charge if text care is not safe
You
I cannot get a dentist until next week. The tooth is a drum.
Chris
Text me the story. If you fit, we make a plan. If you need a chair or the ER, I say that. You do not pay if I cannot treat you by text.

I will not promise a script

A consult does not guarantee a prescription. Many abscesses need a dentist to open the tooth or drain the pocket. Some need the ER. If a helper medicine fits, I may send it to your pharmacy as a bridge. The dentist still fixes the house.

Who often fits a text

  • Adult, swallowing and breathing fine
  • Swelling over one tooth or gum spot
  • Physically in a state I can treat
  • You know the dentist is still required

Who needs another door

  • Trouble breathing or swallowing spit
  • Floor of the mouth rising, eye closing
  • A tooth that needs to be opened or pulled today
  • A child under 2

Questions I get

How much is the visit?

$59 flat. You do not pay if text care is not safe.

Will I get medicine?

Only if it is appropriate. A consult does not guarantee a prescription. Helper medicine, if it fits, is a bridge, not a tooth repair.

Do you pull teeth?

No. A dentist does hands-on work. I do text visits.

What states?

13 states, including Florida by telehealth registration. You must be in a state I can treat at the time of the visit.

When do I skip this page and go to the ER?

Trouble breathing or swallowing, a rising floor of the mouth, a closing eye, or a hard spreading neck. Call 911 or go now.

Text Chris

Soft ask. Tell me what the tooth is doing. I will tell you if I am the right door.
