 in response to Candela1113...   Thank you, Candela1113 for your recommendation.

All last week, I had an infection of the upper right wisdom tooth (which I've needed removed for years) that I managed to Ibuprofen my way through, and I suppose fight off. But as that pain died down, a damaged tooth in my lower left jaw began hurting. It's been EXCRUCIATINGLY painful for three or four days. I'm talking the kind of pain that alternated my mood from struggling to keep myself from punching a hole in the wall, to being helplessly down on my knees in the bathroom nearly in tears.

Well, yesterday, the pain around the tooth faded, but my jaw started getting tight. It's now very swollen and itself starting to hurt on occasion. There is some yellow funny-tasting stuff draining out from the gum where the cracked off portion of the tooth used to be. Undoubtedly... an abscess. Yay. I think this draining is the only thing keeping the pressure, and subsequently pain, down at the moment.

To get to the point, I have no insurance and only just last week started a part-time minimum wage job. I've only received a small part of that week's work in my first paycheck, so I have a measly $70 in my bank account. It's remarkable but my first infection somehow timed its painful moments around the job interview and training week schedule. :P And luckily I've had most of the early part of this week off to suffer in peace.

Well, I can't put this off any longer. I HAVE to get treatment tomorrow because this is getting more and more serious. I actually have an old dentist friend in town with his own practice, but I haven't spoken with him about a year. I sent him an email asking for his advice in my situation and am really hoping he can offer a favor or something. Regardless, the first thing I'm going to do tomorrow morning is call the Good Samaritan Health Center Candela1113 recommended and see if they can help me out.

GOOD SAMARITAN HEALTH CENTER CAN HELP YOU ALL!!!!
I have suffered from many dental issues for yrs without having dental coverage to help me. I expressed my situation to a co-worker of mine and how I was afraid of the spreading of infection caused by my tooth. She told me about the place her husband went to. It only cost $50, and is income based. He had to get 4 teeth extracted and it only cost him $50 total! I've googled it and found the info that I will post below. I haven't been yet, but I am definetly going ASAP! Also, if Marietta is far for some, you may want to look into nearby colleges and or dental schools. They perform the same type of procedures at little or no cost to you! NOTE THAT: GOOD SAMARITAN Cobb operates just like a private health care practice. Employees include physicians, nurse practitioners, medical and dental assistants, an administrator, and front office support staff. The dental clinic has 6 operatories, state of the art equipment and skilled dental assistants and hygienists.

VERY IMPORTANT: Charges are calculated from a sliding scale based on income and family size. If you are a first time patient you will need to bring a picture identification, $50.00 and proof of income to determine your payment. W-2’s, the last three current paycheck stubs, unemployment letters from the unemployment office or letters from employers are all suitable as proof of income. If you do not bring a proof of income, then you will automatically be fee scaled at 40% for the first and second visit (unless proper documentation is presented). If no documentation has been provided at the third visit, you will be responsible for 100% of the charges. Patients residing in rehabilitation centers or shelters must provide a dated (for the day of service) letter confirming their residency and employment status. Patients who are truly destitute will be seen free of charge. Due to the requirements from some of our external providers, we ask that patients bring the appropriate financial documentation to the center at each appointment. This will ensure that needed services such as lab, x-ray, and medications can be provided in a timely manner. Good Sam Cobb Receives 80% of its operating funds from the generous donations of others. Practice Partner Research Network awarded Good Sam Cobb:"#1 Clinic" in 2008!"

 in response to cupcake117...   I'm going thru the same thing. I also have an affected mouth but nobody will see me because lack of funds. whoever finds 1 we will tell easc other

Can anyone offer any help at all? I went to Grady and South side, southside's dentist refused to see me, and had the nurse tell all he could do was pull my teeth, but they refused to since its on my smile line. I have been suffering for years. I am sick of this, I am in desperate need of fillings and root canals, I'm in so much pain I can't think. The Er only gives antibiotics, and Grady only takes HIV patients. What gives? Do we rot from infection?

 in response to mom of boy/girl twins...   I need free or to be charged the minimum dental care as ap All of a sudden because of bacteria m front teeth are moving.. Plz help!

 in response to Incomplete...   If I'm not mistaken Grady Hospital do extractions!

 in response to Inspiration...   The 2 links you posted Mercy Clinic North and South medical.

I'm unemployed,No dental insurance.And i need a dentist ASAP! I'm in so much pain,I have clicked and searched every link posted on here and nothing.I need something for someone who doesn't have any income or insurance.I have tried The Ben Massell Dental Clinic but you have to wait so long and they only take 25 people a week.I'm in need of extraction like now.

 in response to Incomplete...   Who are your trying to call? I'm not sure which posting you are referring to.

 in response to Inspiration...   One is a fax machine the other one says it only does Obgyn. They need to change that so people won't have to waste time calling.

hi i've been having a really bad streak of luck. my food stamps and child medicaid got taken away and i've cooperated with all the paperwork they ask me for. my husband broke his back and cant work i've not been able to find work either and am starting to loose faith. i cant afford to go see a regular dentist so does anyone know a charity dental clinic??? my teeth are hurting so much and im having a hard time trying to chew i need help desperately!!!

 in response to MIMI0229...   I live in savannah too. Affordable dentures in pooler pulls teeth for like $35 call and see about timing. And Curtis V. Cooper on east broad and president st

 in response to aprilnjames...   I’ve been looking for a dentist that may be able to help your daughter, but haven’t found one yet. My kids are on WellCare as well, and I am surprised that it will not cover a root canal. They have made so many changes this year to the plan that it’s getting more and more difficult to find a provider. I’ll keep looking.

 in response to renata...   

I found a website that lists free medical and dental clinics in the Atlanta area.  There are several listed on the site and provided two near the Alpharetta area that may be a good place to start.
