Case Description
O k, I have already stated in a previous question. my situation. I have a molar that needs to be removed as soon as possible. It is driving me crazy. I have dental pliers and I'm very close to attempting it myself. I am currently unemployed. I have no income, and no money. I was figuring on this maybe costing 100 to 120 dollars considering i already have accurate and recent x-rays... according to my estimates and the information several of you have gotten back to me with... it will be closer to 200. I have someone willing to help me out and lend me 120... but there is no way I can get a hold of 200. I am desperately searching for employment. And I desperately need to get this thing removed asap. Does anyone know of an oral surgeon that does clinic work somewhere? Someone that may be willing to work a deal with me? Ill mop their floors, shovel snow, ill do anything to get rid of this constant pain. I have tried wiggling it myself with dental pliers several times in an attempt to gain the courage to yank but with nothing to kill the pain, I have not been able to bring myself to do it. Are there any clinics anywhere that actually remove molars? At reduced rates? The dental colleges even charge 100 to 120 just to be seen(exam) and that doesn't include surgery. My jaw hurts so bad... I'd rather die. Seriously.

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.
