Clinic?: If you live near a dental school or a clinic that charges based on income you can seek treatment there. You need to be seen by a dentist to get to the source of your problems and get them treated.

Invest in your : Decide to invest in your oral health.First get a consult by a dental professional to take care of the possible infection.At the same time get an estimate on how much it would cost to get you back to a disease free (stable state).Then do a cost/ benefit analysis with your dentist to see if insurance is an option.A lot of times dentist have separate fee schedules for cash paying customers.
