Dental schools are an excellent place to have dental procedures done at a very low cost. The students always need patients to work on and they are well supervised by their instructors who are dentists. Another option would be for you to contact your health department... many cities now have dental clinics in their health departments. However, it is probably not very likely that you are going to be able to have it done completely free of charge, though the fee will be minimal and is often on a 'sliding fee scale'. If neither of the above is an option for you, I would suggest you go to an emergency room to, at the very least, have an antibiotic prescribed to you. If your tooth is hurting that badly then there is likely to be infection in the pulp (nerve) of the tooth and you need an antibiotic to clear that up so the infection does not spread to any other areas of your body. Left untreated, an infection in a tooth could land you in a hospital for an extended vacation or at the very worst, it could possibly even cause death.
