<prompt> Human: Going to need something like a root canal, and they say dont delay, though theres no possible way I can afford a dentist at this point. Im also looking for a part-time job at the moment. Are the costs of getting it done at dental schools very low or still somewhat expensive? Id like to deal with this before it turns really bad  <response>: Some colleges have dentalmedical coverage available or already a part of students tuition. Check with the medical office at your school. In any case, yes, dental schools are generally much lower, but Im not familiar with their root canal costs. Good luck, and good on you for dealing with it as needed.
