What do you do if you have infected wisdom teeth but can’t afford a dentist? I’m in agony. I can’t eat. I can’t sleep.<\/p>\n

Dear Vera,<\/p>\n

\"Woman
Don’t Ignore an Infected Tooth Because of Money<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I know you’re in a great deal of pain so what I’m saying is in the deepest compassion. You cannot afford NOT to deal with this. This infection will spread. Your heart and your brain are very close to your jaw. If the infection spreads to either, it’s life-threatening and can happen so quickly the medical community may not have time to help. <\/p>\n

There are ways to deal with this when you’re broke. <\/p>\n

There are affordable dentists<\/a> and even oral surgeons who will do the work you need and let you pay them out as you’re able. They know how serious this is and will work with you<\/a> rather than allow you to put your life at risk.<\/p>\n

If, for some reason, you can’t find a compassionate dentist in your area. There’s something called Care Credit. It’s a medical credit card which has low and even no-interest payment plans. <\/p>\n

Call your doctor and get on some antibiotics. It WILL NOT take care of the infected wisdom teeth. Those need to be extracted. But, it will buy you a little bit of time while you find the care you need. He may even be willing to provide a stronger pain reliever than you can get over-the-counter.<\/p>\n
