Ive been having some serious pain and infection because of an impacted wisdom tooth. This has been going on for about 3 months now. I have healt coverage but I have a six month waiting period for dental. I live in PA. Does anyone have any suggestions. Not even vicodin helps with the pain I have.
No dental insurance.?
Check the Care Credit website. I signed up and you can charge your dental bill and take up to 18 months (the deal I got at least) to pay it back interest free. Good luck, hope it works out.
Reply:I hope you take keoki's suggestion, or find some other way to pay for it, but get to a dentist immediately! Letting an infected tooth go untreated can cause ~serious~ health problems. A man I worked with put off getting an infected tooth taken care of, and the infection spread to his brain. He was in a coma, and though he survived, it took months before he could walk and speak again.
And don't forget that poor child in Maryland: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/con...
Reply:If there is a college or university nearby that teaches dentistry, you may want to give them a call. Often these places are desperate for patients as the students need to treat so many people before they can graduate. They are supervised by professionals, so the care is generally good.
I hope you find some relief.
Reply:WOW..if Vicoden does not help you, you have a HIGH tolerance my friend...anyway..try finding a dental school as someone else mentioned. Or throw the bill on your credit card. If your in pain, pay up!!
Reply:There should be a community health center that does urgent dental care. Find out soon b/c you have to wait in line starting at 7 am.
Reply:You definitely need to go get that taken care of ASAP. A bad infection like that can cause severe problems like a previous poster stated. I would either slap it on a credit card or check out a discount dental plan. There is no waiting period. You can save the day you sign up.

Reply:You can go to the dentist immediate with this dental plan. There's no waiting periods. Take a look at it, I think it would really help
