Dental Emergency
I HAVE A DENTAL EMERGENCY, IS THERE AN OPTION IF YOU ARE BROKE AND NO INSURANCE IN ALABAMA?
Question by metalfae:
I have a dental EMERGENCY, is there an option if you are broke and no insurance in alabama?
I had a broken tooth.. I got an antibiotic and painkiller, but the tooth has now gotten so bad the gum has swelled around it. ( bottom left molar in the back) and im in constant agony, even when i take the meds. I am almost done with the antibiotic as well and seems to have gotten very infected. im actually getting ill.. and i dont know if there is any way i can see a dentist about removing this tooth and cleaning it out. I have no insurance, and as i said i think its now an emergency, therefore i cannot wait months for county insurance or anything.
Does anyone in alabama near huntsville or decatur know if there are any dentists offices who will see you with no money or insurance or anything if its an emergency? I am thinking no.. =(

Q&A: WHERE DO DENTAL EMERGENCY PATIENTS GO?
Question by Chelsea:
Where do dental emergency patients go?
After the dentists offices are closed, there’s a bad accident, automobile accident, and a person is hurt by hitting his mouth on the steering wheel and his teeth are hanging out of his gums. But, unfortunately all dental offices are closed, it’s 11pm, the hospital refuses to see him because there is no dentist on call. So, where do we go? (This is a story I made up) I do not comprehend how come no one can see you if your are in severe pain after dental offices are closed, why do not they have a dentist on call 24 hours a day? Why is not there a dentist that’s open after hours? I was in severe pain the other night, and they just said, well all we would do is give something double the strength of ibuprofen until the dentist office opens. I called around to a few hospitals, it’s bullcrap if you happen to ask me. Any thoughts?
DENTAL EMERGENCY, SEVERE PAIN PLEASE HELP!?
Question by muziknurd_06:
Dental Emergency, Severe Pain Please Help!?
Ok, I have a tooth that had a cavity. The cavity ate through the tooth & there’s just a small piece left that’s actually loose, so the nerves are exposed, it hurts, etc.
It used to just mildly irritate me on occasion, then a couple weeks ago, it began to hurt more frequently, which I effectively solved with some Tylenol.
Then the pain was more frequent & stronger, to which I added Orajel to the mix.
Now the pain is all day long constant. It has spread throughout my gumline. My jaw gets locked in place from the horrible pain. My face is radiating heat & pain. My neck hurts. My inner ear is hurting bad. I have a constant headache & my cheekbone (sinus?) hurts.
Now I have a decently high pain threshold & I am in an OBSCENE amount of pain.
Varieties of pain meds (Tylenol, Ibuprofen & Aleve) are having ZERO effect on the pain. Orajel is almost useless.
Going to the dentist is not an option right now. I have neither the financial abilities or insurance.
WHAT CAN I DO?? If I go to the emergency room, could/would they do anything?
Forgot to mention, I have not slept in 3 days because the pain is so severe & I have barely eaten because the pain is making me nauseous.
IN ANTIBIOTICS FROM DENTIST HOW DO I GET RID OF PAIN?
Question by Bee yourself:
In antibiotics from dentist how do i get rid of pain?
Went to dentist emergency as i was (still am) in a lot of pain not my regular one as i couldnt wait for the appointment so saw another one in the same practice, they took xrays and i told her i could feel something poking out of my gum at the back like a tooth, i had a tooth extracted out in the same area a month ago. She said it wasnt a tooth but my bone? gave it a name but i cant remember, she said that it hadnt healed proper (even thou its been a month?) and gave me metronidazole tablets to take, asked her about painkillers she said ibro/para said they dont work and yet i wasnt given any other painkilers
Ive been awake most of the nite with this pain, taken too many painkillers ibro/para/co-codomol nothing is working only thing that relieves it for 2 mins is cold water but then im going to have to sit by the sink all day
Anyone else had this and can advocate something? Ive done salt water also.
Pain is quite severe down the side of my face that the bone is protuding and also giving in earache also same side
Hope its not as according to the net the only thing to help with the pain is for the dentist to pack it with gauze? only thing she done is xrays and filled out a scrip, cant even say it coz she was in a rush coz i was called half hr early as someone hadnt turned up!
thanks for answering, still in extreme pain phoned dentist answer machine (weekend) and got told to ring nhs direct, done that they told me to phone dentist
Been down hospital i dont like too but in so much pain told them im taking co-codomol, paracetemol, ibro etc they aint working they give me co-codomol 500 im already taking them!!! Got told i have to keep taking them to build up the strength (?) i havent been able to take my antibiotics in too much pain cant eat and i need to eat to take them
Crying im in so much pain, worse thing is i went to the dentist n im still in pain what if they do nothing tmrw what then?
take 2 co-codomol to sit in pain for 4 hrs before i can take another 2, how is that pain relief!!??

Can you go to the emergency room for a toothache?
My husband has a bad toothache he has taken just about everything you can possibly take. I cannot find a dentist open on the weekend. Do hospitals have dentists on call?
Do they accept insurance?
