part of my tooth broke off!!!!!!?

the 2nd molar from the back broke off so when i eat food gets stuck inside the tooth and i need to use floss, fingernail, toothpick to get it out. it doesn't hurt but it's irritating to have food stuck in it. so can the dentist fix it and what will they do? but how much does it cost as I dont have dental insurance!
--------------------
Yes, it can be fixed, and you should have it fixed as soon as possible before the tooth decays or gets infected. Unfortunately it will probably be expensive. Probably you will need to get a crown - they will grind your tooth down and fit you with a cap that goes over your tooth - it will feel like a normal tooth. There are clinics that will be cheaper or even free. You should not wait to fix this!!!
