Case Description
3 weeks ago, I had a horrible abscess in my tooth. I was prescribed penicillin and I am now done taking the medication. The swelling is gone but I have serious pain whenever I bite down and apply pressure to the tooth. I went to ches penn dental care and I already have a set of x-rays. I need to know how much it is going to cost me to get this thing removed. I need to know exactly how much because I will be borrowing the money from a relative as I am currently unemployed and have no insurance. As I said, I have x-rays. This is an emergency! I have dental pliers and may attempt it on my own if I do not get help immeditely.P.S. there is still a good amount of the tooth left. It is horseshoe shaped.

Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.
