rotten tooth to the gum line?

I have a tooth in the back that for some reason didnt get enough attention with my tooth brush compared to the other teeth that has rotted to the gum line. it doesnt really hurt but it has become extremly sensitve to cold stuff to the point I cant stand it. I have a dentist appointment later on today and am wondering if shes going to have a hard time getting a tooth out like that were she has nothing to really pull on?? will she just send me to a oral surgen?? I cant afford that im already paying out of pocket without dental insurance. any pointers or experiences are helpful

skifaeri is just mean. I'm sorry, but that is no way to talk to a person who is suffering and worried. It is a known fact that back teeth are harder to reach and for some people, they are impossible. Also, if you have your wisdom teeth, or if this is one, they are especially difficult to keep clean. Yes, your general dentist should be able to remove that tooth without having to refer you to an oral surgeon. It will be more difficult on you, as there will be more "digging" and possibly some drilling, but general dentists do this type of thing all the time. Good Luck with your treatment today. And be sure to follow all of the post surgical recommendations given to you by the dentist or the staff.
