My bottom tooth is hurting. What should I do?

One of my bottom front teeth is hurting. Its sensitive to pressure (touching it, or chewing and biting). I dont have dental insurance and work for minimum wage. Does anyone know how to get lower costs dental treatment? Or what to do?
--------------------
I don't know where there are low cost clinics in your area, but I can tell you what is going on with your tooth. The nerve is starting to die. It will continue to become more painful and infection will build up and swelling will start. Your whole lower jaw may be involved. The only way the tooth can be saved is to do a root canal on it. But you will need to get help asap. Sorry for the bad news and I wish I could help you more.
