can a hospital pull a hurting tooth ?

I dont have dental insurance and i have a very bad tooth ache, can a doctor at the emergency room pull it ?
--------------------
It will cost more in the long run to go to ER. Call some dentists in your area. I am sure one of them will help you and take payments or know of a dental agency that will. Try the colleges some might have practicing dentists earning credits.

Can you help me with my dental issue?

I had a rooth canal done a few years ago on a back molar. They took off a corner of my tooth and filled the root and then covered the corner of my tooth back up. Well when I was eating one day that corner they took off and replaced broke off. Soon after my insurance would no longer cover me because my dad lost his job. I'm now in intense pain and I don't know what to do. I don't have insurance and I don't have the money out of pocket. Can anyone help me please?
--------------------
I am sorry about your tooth and your financial trouble. It seems more and more people are having diffculty making ends meet. Well the thing I can suggest you do is go to the dentist or a local hospital and ask if there is some sort of program or aid that will allow you to fix your dental needs. I believe, but I am not sure, that there must be some sort of help or aid for people who cannot pay immediately out there. Besides this, I also suggest looking at your spendings. Cutting back on luxury items can definetly increase your extra cash. Let me elaborate on my definition of "luxury items". Luxury items means anything that is not necessary for normal living. Buying a cheap ipod, going out to eat to some fancy restaurant, watching a flick or two, etc are not essential parts of life. They are enjoyable events in life but if you are in a money crunch, try cutting back a bit. Additionally, when it comes to important things like food, look for weekly specials on the ads that come in the mail. Doing these little things really adds up. Of course your tooth will probably not wait for these changes to take effect so I suggest taking my advice on what I said above.

Cobra Dental retroactive due from the Date? (not worried about the money aspect of it)?

I am going to get it this time since it will be cheaper, my question is will it still remain that I had coverage for three years (prior to being laid off and couldnt afford it since November)? I need a crown and if it goes back to waiting period of a year to get discounts on the crown then there is really no reason to get dental again, because Obama is only allowing it for 9 months, right?? Someone please help. I had insurance with my company three years prior... Anyone know the answer?
--------------------
Your employer should be sending you a letter about the new stimulus rules for Cobra. The Cobra will be retroactive to the date you left, but you'll have to pay those premiums. However, this means the waiting period for the crown will be not be reset, you will be OK. good luck

Do corporations exploit their workers for personal gain?

Most major corporations offer workers, In addition to a wage, Profit sharing opportunities, Performance bonuses, Matching 401k plans, Health and dental insurance, Education assistance, Company vehicles, Sick days, Vacation time, Funeral leave, etc. So how are they exploited?
--------------------
No. Unless you believe that paying someone to actually work is exploitation.

is it possible to cut out your wisdom teeth yourself?

my wisdom teeth are killing me and i dont have dental insurance. i have a high, high tolerance for pain and i want to cut my wisdom teeth out myself. it is only the ones on the bottom that are hurting. also, i have some amoxicillin 500mg capsules and 5 levaquin 750mg, so i am not worried about getting an infection. do you think this is do-able, and how would one go about doing this? thanks for your help
--------------------
O,O What the fruit, dude... That's a no no. I wouldn't do that... It's not the same as cutting your own hair. It's like performing brain surgery on yourself! I would leave it to a professional. I'm sorry. I just don't want you to get hurt. Plus, you need stitches in the end AND there's loads of blood and I don't think it would be very good to swallow it all... Sell some crap from your house in a garage sale! I mean, come on. Everyone has crap in their home! Kay

Dentist Japan? Have you gotten a filling replaced in Japan?

With no dental insurance for another 6 weeks I have to pay full price. How much do you think 1-2 surfaces will cost? How many visits to the dentist? I just need this filling refilled so I don't go around with a hole in my tooth that could get infected. I have been down that road.
--------------------
TokyoE is right. If you have a health insurance, that will cover your dental care too. If you just remove plaque and clean your teeth, it will take only a couple of days. It will cost... roughly about 2,000yen, I think... I don't remember. If you have your decayed tooth filled, it will take a month or so, and will cost ... 1,500yen to 3,000yen at least, and if you have a really, really bad tooth, it will cost 7,000yen and up. http://cost.ha-channel.net/musiba.shtml Oh, before they start fixing your teeth, they usually take a X-ray of your mouth (teeth). For one tooth, it will take for a month (once a week visit).
