Anonymous Coward User ID: 66264432 United Kingdom 12/21/2014 05:23 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I went to the Dentist a week ago (after suffering for the last year with the worst tooth pain you can imagine.) Finances are tight, but i received the Xrays which revealed the state of Decay in 2 of my molars. Quoting: Lole Ibn Plutoon The cavity is an open hole, exposing the nerve.. It pounds and throbs in brutal agony.. It also feels like my jaw is trying to eject the tooth.. I don't have the money to get it pulled.. (stupid dentist wanted $400 a tooth, which i simply didn't have after Xrays) I'm trying to get on a waiting list for a Dental School which offers reduced prices.. IN THE MEANTIME - I CAN BARELY OPERATE I'm trying to go to work still, taking up to 8 IBprofen a day, and tylenols, i've got my hands on a few prescription painkillers here and there.. But i can't fucking take it!! I'll end up on a waiting list for this reduced price procedure, which will take a few months.. So what do i do??? The option i'm weighing currently is this: Put a few drops of bleach on the exposed nerve for 10-15 Seconds then quickly and carefully rinse and spit. I've read that it will hurt like hell for a minute, but it will permanently kill the nerve. And thats what i want to do. Kill the nerve.. I'm afraid that there will be terrible terrrible effects though.. Very dangerous sounding.. Any advice?? Help me please!! Oil of cloves, directly applied to the tooth. Dear God, OP, I feel for you. Tooth pain is the worst. |

Soak it in clove oil and pack the cotton down it the hole with a toothpick. That should help ease some of your pain. Make sure to get it taken care of soon with the dentist. Abscesses can kill you. |
AC User ID: 65872025 Australia 12/21/2014 05:29 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Oregano oil, one or two drops on aa cotton bud touched straight to the tooth . It will taste terrible and feel like it's burning any skin it touches but the relief will be instant. Biting down On a piece of raw onion can also help to kill some the germs and relieve pain. Good luck |

Try to pull the tooth yourself, fail miserably, and end up having to go to dentist anyway. 3. Just go to the dentist and have them take care of it. Once you are pain free, you will find it much easier to make money. If you are really broke, then your bad teeth could be part of the reason for it. Investing in your personal health is the best investment you can make. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 66264601 United States 12/21/2014 05:30 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Apply for Medicaid and they'll cover your procedures with a very small co-pay. It is what I had to do. [link to www.medicaid.gov] Don't look at it as charity as you work and paid into the program. If you live in a city some suggest calling your local dental college and have the students work on you. Some say it is hard others say easy depending on the school. You can also get one of those Dentek kits to fill the holes until you can get it worked on. They have clove oil in them and it helps. I have tried the room temp and even freezing water method but it is only a temp fix, the pain comes roaring back with a vengeance. Tricking the nerves just pisses them off more. |

You will just have to arrange a payment plan to get it extracted. Otherwise, you will get a brain infection and lose 3 years of your life as you stumble around like a zombie. Try to prevent them from giving you CIPRO (antibiotic) as it will also steal a year or two from your life due to complications it causes. It happened to me. |

I hope this doesn't sound callous, but have you considered pulling them out yourself? The roots of infected teeth lose their strength - so it might not be as difficult as you'd think. (However I caution pulling upper molars, because there is a slight risk of the roots being attached to the sinus floor) It sounds like you need root canals, which unfortunately have a high failure rate. |
John Nash User ID: 56387638 United States 12/21/2014 05:44 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Sorry to hear about your pain. But I assure you it didn't happen overnight. Get yourself some money put back because if this is happening to 2 teeth it will happen to more. Now, here is the best advice you will receive from a conspiracy forum: First, get a copy of the radiographic image taken by the dentist you just saw. Next, find out who in your town is a Medicaid dental provider. There should be a website for your state. Call the office of one of those providers tell them you have a copy of the radiographic image. Ask if the dentist will accept the same payment from you as they would if you were covered by Medicaid and pay him in cash. I don't care how you get it, that is what pawn shops are for. Don't give me that crap about no money. You've likely got a phone. Go pawn it. Instead of it being about $400, it should be about $100. Yes, that is right. There are dental professionals out there who take that big of a hit in their bottom line because they agree to participate in helping the poor. A supply-limited commodity, instantly transferable worldwide, person-to-person, is intrinsically and uniquely valuable. |

I don't have one, but should probably get one.. I've been using Baking Soda, H2O2, and Expensive Coconut oil Pulling for combat infection. I KNOW its infected. I take amoxacillin ever so often to fight it off when it gets real bad. I've used Tetracycline too, (for fish, but works on infections).. When it swelled up a year ago real bad, I used sterilized needles and Lanced the fucker myself.. I just jabbed like 20 times into the swollen area and squeezed. It was absolutely, Ungodly pain. But it went away after I relieved the pressure. Now though, since the hole has grown, its the exposed nerve that hurts.. I've been managing to fight off infection for now, but the nerve is just wide open.. Thats why I"m leaning to the Bleach solution.. A couple drops to just eat away and kill the nerve.. But I'm worried that it can get in your bloodstream or something and make you super Ill.. Your options are: Quoting: Anonymous Coward 51666774 1. Die a slow, painful death. 2.

Investing in your personal health is the best investment you can make. I make pretty good money, but with rent and weekly expenses (gas/food etc) its hard to carve enough out to pay for that all at once.. I'm aware of the possible dangers.. And the rewards for treatment.. Thank you everyone for your support.. It has been a VERY rough week.. I have gone almost crosseyed in pain.. Which tragically, keeps me from reading GLP.. Any more remedies are greatly appreciated!
