Hey!Poor guy, I feel for you!! I worked and went to school at UT Dental Branch in Houston in the Medical Center!.If you have the time you can go down there and sign up with dental students(I did that practicing Dental Hygiene)I didn't kill anybody!The students ,mostly senior students have to go through training esp!. dental emergencies!They are totally supervised and the cost is at a minimum!.But time is what it will take from you,they are slow,meticulous and have to checked by an instructor!.Is time money!?Wrong place!!But you will receive very good Dentistry with supervision!.Just time consuming!!!!!I went to school there,did all my clinicals there and then hung out there as an instructor!.They do the best work,cheap and slow!!In the meantime take 800mg Motrin and ice-packs alternating every 15 minutes with heating pad!.But you need an x-ray and antibiotics so once again I recommend UT Dental School(go in as an emergency patient)I believe the address is off John Freeman next to the Medical School!.Good Luck,it will save you money but will be time-consuming!.!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I would encourage you to visit this website www!.healthsavings!.ourperfectcard!.com I signed up on line over 5 years ago now for all my dental needs and they have saved me thousands of dollars from Extractions, xrays, exams!.!.!.etc!. All services are included in this very affordable plan!. They even had my benefits active in 2 hours and was able to use the very same day!. Hope this helps!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Check out the nearby universities and/or dental schools!. They often provide low cost (or even free) services as practice for the students!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It sounds like going to a student program, as others have suggested, is a nice good and cheap idea
BUT,
You will get what you pay for, considering that you're already in pain and may prefer not to become an experiment for first time dental practice, I am not so sure that would be a good choice!.

An Alternative:
You can become a member of a discount non-insurance dental program that would include you and all of your household as members for the same low monthly fee!.

Details are available at the website listed under Sources!. From the website you can:
--search for list of providers in the network by zip code or address
--call several providers and ask for quotes to be sure that they are able to provide what you need at a price you can afford and ask if they have a payment plan, as well, for people with urgent needs like yours
--if you decide to go with this program use the same website listed below to sign up and you'll have immediate access and won't have to wait to get the help that you so urgently need

Also, to keep your peace and sanity, in the meantime, I highly recommend that you read about the benefits of prayer and faith in dealing with pain and health challenges!.
Research studies have shown some correlation between prayer, faith, and healing!. (see article in resource section)!. Also, according to the Holy Bible (see online resource below), trusting and having faith in God, praying, laughter with heartfelt joy, and keeping His Holy Word in your heart can all bring healing!. Please see the online searchable Bible link listed below along with the scripture references!. The search that I did used the word "healing" and yielded 50 different scripture references from both the old and new testament!.

If you would like more information on prayer or scriptures on healing, you are also welcome to contact me through the Yahoo Answers email system, as I am experienced with studying the scriptures and with praying for others' healing and seeing results!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
