Tooth Pain-What Should I do

[daywilkie]

I went to urgent care this morning with sever pain in one of my molars the root is swollen and hurts bad. The doctor says it isn't absessed yet but put me on Pen 500 2x a day. I don't have great dental insurance and the clinic that I go to that takes my insurance is closed until Tuesday...I am due on the 29th of March which is a little over two weeks what should I do?

If you call the dentist's office, there should be someone on call - there is usually an emergency number or answering service.  If that's the case, I would talk to the on call dentist and ask them what you should do.  If you feel it is more of an immediate need, either find another dentist tomorrow morning or call your regular doc and see what they think.  

I have been living with ongoing major dental work for the last few years (multiple root canals, crowns, gum surgery, etc...) so I know how it feels.  Hang in there, mama!
