Do not neglect your teeth.
Growing up, I thought I was invincible! I'd brush my teeth, but not as well as I should have. I ate a lot of candy, drank a lot of pop, but I did chew gum, which is what I think saved my teeth as much as possible.
Now, I've lost one tooth, a molar, and on the verge of loosing another. As I type, each keystroke is in unison with the throbbing in my jaw. I have had this toothache since the night before last. I've tried all the home remedies: tea bags, clove oil, ibuprofen - nothing is working. I do not have health or dental coverage and I'm pretty sure my tooth is infected.
I am completely ignorant to who can help me, I've always put my kids needs before mine, and now it's coming back to haunt me. My credit is in repair from a hardship a few years ago, so getting "credit" to pay for dental expenses is out of the question - the only think I can think to do is get on a plan that reduces what I pay.
I'm hoping United Project is the right place for me!
