I am sick. It never really ends

There is one but they don’t accept anyone. I’m not sure what the criteria is. I’ve left messages. There is nothing else even remotely close. Many many hours away and likely wouldn’t accept someone from another province. I’m kind of not in a great position

Honestly, at this point, I feel like you’d be best to take out a loan or get a credit card, because the amount of pain you’re in is extreme, and the chance of infection is very high. Hell, start a GoFundMe, ask about pro-bono treatment, find a charity that can help you pay, anything. You can’t be passive about this. You’re going to kill yourself if you keep on like this, possibly intentionally.

Have you tried going to the dentist and show them your teeth and face? I can’t believe any dentist with a conscience would turn you away.

She gave me the price (outrageous) and when I was a patient of the dentist that just retired from their office and that he gave me better prices because he knew my situation. She said “well I’m not him am i”. ■■■■■

My brother may have some help for me. I’ll talk to him this week.

Can I ask what led to your teeth being this bad?

Too bad your not closer to Montana. I’d ask my cousin to help you out.

One of the antipsychotics. I think olanzapine. I can’t remember I’ve been on so many

My dentist told me that dipping didn’t ruin my teeth, it was the meds I’m on that caused dry mouth and decay.

Its unfortunate, but it happens. So much for informed consent.

Omg! I had no idea that could happen! That’s freakin scary. I’m on a few meds that cause dry mouth and I’m obsessed with my teeth. I’ve had braces and they are perfectly straight, I have permanent retainers in to keep them from shifting, I keep them white by using whitening strips and occasionally getting them professionally whitened along with brushing and flossing religiously. Were there warning signs?
