You'd be surprised, you can end up getting things as serious as orthodontic surgery for free. If you need gum grafts or a deep planing, they might be able to facilitate that as well. In my area we have a university that does this on a regular basis. |

ASHA User ID: 7997154 United States 06/25/2013 01:01 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I work 40 hours a week, I do not have dental insurance, or medical where I work..My teeth are rotten to the gums, and I am in daily pain to the point I am about ready to blow my brains out. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 42101864 I have checked everywhere for help on free or discounted dentistry work, willing to drive at least 100 miles..and NOTHING..I have written sincere letters over the past 2 years to every dentist in the phone book, and even sent pictures, I have never heard from 1 of them.. I even ask my boss if the company would give me a loan and just take so much a week out of it until the loan was paid, I been there 12 years, he told me they said NO! I can't even eat mash potatoes they are such bad condition..I have suffered for years with it, and they continue to get worse. I am afraid some are so abscessed I may not wake up. To make matters worse I have 2 small children that depend on me. It takes every dime I make to pay my bills, pay my car payment, and pay the discounted child care service I get through the dhr service they offer single parents on a budget. I'm telling you people, I am at the point I can't live anymore, nothing but pain from the time I wake, till I finally cry myself to sleep..What do you do in this situation, I am seriously asking what do I do??..I don't want pitty, just information, cause I come over here at my neighbors apartment, and search on the internet every chance I get, there's nothing..Please help me.. First off, you need to buy some hydrogen peroxide 3%, you can get it in any walgreens or cvs its about $3 or $4 and rinse 2 or 3 times a day to help infection. Take IBUPROFEN to get swelling of gums down, these are just a couple of things till you can figure out what to do.. |

ITZCOMING User ID: 13629925 United States 06/25/2013 01:03 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Stop all processed foods. ALL OF THEM. Stop eating all forms of wheat. Do it cold turkey. It will to be easy as modern wheat is as addictive as heroine. You will probably go through withdrawals. Order high vitamin butter oil/fermented cod liver oil. Google it. Eat only grassed beef. Order it online if there are no local producers. Get some organic cold pressed coconut oil. I use Nutiva brand. Google "oil pulling". Then do it. Filte your drinking your drinking water. Fluoride is 100 percent poison. It does not help your teeth. This does cost more, but when I entered how I eat in an inflation calculator, I'm not spending much more than people did in 1940... That will get you started. Get this book "cure tooth decay" by Ramiel Nagel. |

Also, educate yourself on supplements that help your body rebuild and recover. Try some trace mineral supplements and take some methyl-sulfonyl-methane (MSM) to speed up the process. Our bodies are amazing at fixing themselves once the right building blocks. don't spend thousands when it could only be hundreds. |

Go back to your teenage years and tell yourself to brush your teeth. Everyone already answered the question, thought I give ya some humor :). Good Luck OP, I do hope you find some help. I would highly suggest the orthodontic school, or just go to different dentist offices and simply ask for help - who knows you may run into a generous dentist or someone who knows someone. Just don't give up! |

farmerguy User ID: 41780593 United States 06/25/2013 01:15 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Go to haelth food store, buy a bottle of oregano oil (about $20) use four drops on each area with pain the first day and 1 drop every day after. Be sure to rinse your mouth out with water about five times after enduring the oil for a few minutes or as long as you can. Oregano oil is a powerful anti biotic and this will stop it from killing your beneficial intestinal bacterias. It will heal your gums and stop any pain except very deep root infections. |

Bluebird User ID: 27748381 United States 06/25/2013 01:44 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | OP, find the local tax-funded hospital (call and ask if they are tax funded--I think they have to tell you) and go to the ER. Do not tell them how long they have been hurting because they will ask you why you didn't make other arrangements. Tell them instead that they SUDDENLY began to hurt more than you can bear and you want antibiotics or something for the infection. When it comes time to pay, tell them you need hardship forms as you have no insurance or money. If worse comes to worse and you do not have any drug allergies, you could also get fish antibiotics. Pet supply places like Jefferspet.com 1-800-JEFFERS (and no I have no connection to that place) but they ship fast if you are in the southeast especially. Might can get them at local pet shop if you are in a urban area. Penicillin or ampicillin if you have no allergies. Amoxicillin also. Cheap but better than dying. Abscessed teeth are serous and can make you VERY ill. You're not in the Nashville area by any chance are you? I have a family member a dentist there. One of the most important aspects of conspiracy theories is being able to discern when there isn't one. Oh yeah, like you'd understand anyway.

Cross the border and get your teeth done for super cheap. They even have companies that screen the dentists, and set up your appointments for you. Many people fly down from Canada to go there. |
