Hi!!! im missing my tooth
On a real note, in 2023 i got my wisdom teeth removed, one of my old fillings broke in the process. Since i was under anesthesia, I didnt feel it, or the pain afterwards. Nothing felt off until 6 months later when my filling (i thought it was a piece of my tooth) came out. I made a mental note to go to the dentist. Well, the next day i found out my mom had a few weeks to live. I put my tooth on the backboard, until the day after she passed when i had extreme pain in my mouth. I went to the dentist and we scheduled me a root canal 2 weeks out. 2 days after that (the night nefore the funeral) I was deeply ill. It had become infected and spread into my bloodstream. I pushed through, and that weekend (christmas eve) was rushed to an emergency dentist where my tooth had been ripped out. What we didnt realize is my dental insurance had been canceled a few days prior when my mom had passed. I have new insurance now, the only one i could find that would cover a portion, but because i got the insurance after the extraction, it covers nothing. after going to several dentists, my best quote for a new tooth is $5400. The first part of the process is $2700, which is what i am asking for help with and i will hopefully be able to figure the rest out. My gums are now caving in and i will need another expensive bone graft if i dont get the implant soon. Thank you so much♥️
