I&#8217;ve had a cavity that I haven&#8217;t dealt with simply because of finances. I predicted I&#8217;d have enough money in two more paychecks. But, this morning I woke up with a swollen face. I fear it&#8217;s worse than I thought. Is there any way to deal with this in an affordable way quickly or am I stuck waiting for another month?<\/p>\n<p>Laura O. &#8211; Illinois<\/p>\n<p>Laura,<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;re in a bit of a pickle. I don&#8217;t want you to think I&#8217;m insensitive to your situation because I&#8217;m not. Before discussing your options, I wanted to make sure you understood how serious this is. It seems like you have some idea based on what you&#8217;ve written above. I just want to make sure you know that people still die from tooth infections. The good news is they rarely die from it when they get timely treatment. There is hope.<\/p>\n<p>There are dentists who, not only strive to be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.peckfamilydentistry.com\/affordable-dentist-scottsdale.html\">affordable dentists<\/a>, but will work with you on payments. Most dentists have payment plan uptions either in-office or through Care Credit. Let them know what&#8217;s going on and I&#8217;m sure you&#8217;ll find a dentist willing to work you.<\/p>\n<p>Worst case scenario, you can go to your primary care physician and get some antibiotics. IT will not cure your infection. but it will buy you some time. Just don&#8217;t take too much time. <\/p>\n<p>This blog is brought to you by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.peckfamilydentistry.com\">Dr. Kevin Peck<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I fear I&#8217;m developing an emergency situation and need a root canal right away.
