OTC Pain Meds...: ... until you see a dentist. Insurance or not, you need to be treated by a dentist. Most people don't have dental insurance but they still maintain and restore their teeth. Please seek the proper care now.

Obamacare: See if you qualify or can purchase the dental component of Obamacare. Otherwise, you can purchase insurance plans, seek treatment with a dental school or dental residents at a hospital based program.

Seek treatment: With or without insurance you require care. Your Dentist may be able to offer you a payment plan. Ask your county social services agency, or your local dental society, for local reduced fee clinics. Less expensive care available at dental schools. Seek individual dental insurance plan (may be costly). Not every problem is covered by insurance. May have to pay out of pocket.
