My boyfriend has 4 impacted wisdom teeth that have been pushing on the rest of his teeth for about a year now. Last night one of his molars cracked in half to expose the root of the tooth. It is hurting him bad enough that he is getting physically ill from it. We have been using dental creams and the like on his gums to relieve the pain since we do not have insurance at this time or any extra money to be able to afford the surgery. Does anyone know where we can get an inexpensive help?? Ideally all 4 of his wisdom teeth need to be removed and the now broken tooth. All of the insurance providers I have looked at will not cover the surgery if we sign up immediately we have to wait a year. Please Help! We are in Oklahoma.

You should call a dental college in your area. Usually, the general public can make appointments to see dental students, who are going to school to become dentists or dental hygienists. The services they provide are at a significantly reduced price. Check out the U of O website: http://gradschool.about.com/gi/dynamic/o… In the meantime for pain, give your BF 1000 mg of advil or tylenol every 4 hours. That would be 4 200 mg pills (check the bottle). This will significantly help with the pain.
