Reply:oh, check the county in which you live.


see if you can get dental assistance.
Reply:Since you do work, you probably won't qualify for assistance. But you can call the nearest college that has a dental school and they will do the work for next to nothing. If you're in horrible pain, it would be worth it to drive a while to get there if you need to.


You can also go to www.carecredit.com. You apply to them and if you qualify (based on credit), they give you a card to use at the dentist and you pay Care Credit back. The rates and monthly payments are very reasonable.


You may also take 800 mg of Motrin every 6-8 hours for a few days. Keep your head elevated above your heart when you rest. It helps tremendously at night when the pain is the worst. Just lay on several pillows.


I hope you feel better soon!
