That's why I added if you have the means, I absolutely understand if you don't. I just had a tooth extracted that was overdue by a few years. Just didn't have the money to get it filled before it cracked in half and I was in excruciating pain for months. I get it.

Maybe try a community health center if you have one near you? They usually do a sliding scale and can make referrals to doctors who work with uninsured or under-insured people. That's how I got my tooth taken care of without being thousands in debt after. Just google "community health centers near 'name of town & state." That is if you feel like pursuing it. Totally get it if you don't, but the above info can help with other health related issues too.

Either way, I hope even a little of that info is helpful to you. I fucking hate healthcare that's useless AND expensive. Wishing you the best.
