I have an abscessed tooth.  I had it looked at, and my Dentist said it needs extraction, but my dentist doesnt actually do extractions.  I was recommended to an oral surgery place, but I cant afford them, even with my insurance.  The Abscess has gone away, but the tooth has since gotten a little loose.  Im a little lost on what to do.
Dear friend. Thanks for sharing your concern. Extraction of tooth is not a very costly procedure, while saving a tooth is more costlier affair. therefore if the tooth has turned loose due to loss of attachment it is better to get it extracted. Which tooth you are taking about?please mention that. Also, even if the abscess appears to have resolved the tooth should be extracted to prevent recurrence of infection.it should be done under antibiotic and analgesic coverage. Hope it helps take care. Thanks
