my wisdom tooth on the bottom right has been a menace for more than a year now...but now he's out of control. my gums are swollen, bleeding and it just plain hurts. eating is unpleasant. and it's just an unpleasant thing all around. i have no dental insurance. are there any alternatives as to how i can take care of this or do you know of any program that assists with dental care? thanks :)

Hey, so yes its unfortunate you dont have dental insurance.. but there is a reason that dentists take out your wisdom teeth, they can grow in crooked, displacing all your other teeth, or develop an infection or absess since they are hard to clean, ESPECIALLY if its swollen and bleeding, that will sometimes indicate an infection. Try a dental school, I am currently in dental hygiene school and we do treatment for a fraction of the cost, and it may sound scary that its a student but dont be worried, there are many instructors watching their every move and double checking everything that is done to ensure your safety Make sure you brush, floss and use mouthwash in the time being to reduce the number of bacteria in your mouth so your less likely to get an infection or a worse one good luck
