I have incredible tooth pain rn and I'm not employed and don't have dental insurance. To my knowledge a hospital won't do anything unless it's an emergency. But it's not like I can do much of anything besides attempt to sleep through it and treat it with oral benzocaine and oragel. It's been like this on and off for the last 4 years. I'm so distraught that I'm considering waking into traffic. I hate this and just want to stop existing. Is there anything y'all can recommend? I'm in Pinellas county Florida if that helps. Currently donating plasma and the sodium citrate is seemingly making the pain worse.

    That's awesome. Good luck comrade. Teeth shit fucking sucks. It took me years to claw back my gum line from gingivitis. Having ADHD wasn't doing me any good with that. I've had teeth rot out due to not keeping up with it. So I know how you feel. Dental offices are such shameful places in my experience. Glad you got some good advice and a game plan.
