I got my tooth abscess done FREE at the Dental University, but I had to wait 4 days before they would see me and by then, I was ready to shoot myself in the head and commit suicide from the searing ice-pick pain. They ended up having to do maxiofacial surgery to remove the tooth and surrounding gum tissue, requiring a bone graft and a temporary implant that injects medicine directly into the infected socket. All said and done, I was very pleased minus bad pain for a week, but it saved me $5,680!

I have to get surgery on my gum and tooth. Everybody in my school says i am in or a rude awakening but my dentist says that I will be put to sleep and I won't feel some pain until a couple hours after the surgery. Right now I am scared because this is my 2nd time getting surgery and I feel like I am going to get something bad. I actually take good care of my teeth but this one tooth won't cooperate with my treatment and mouth so. Can anybody give me tips? I also have to get braces! Great vid doc
