23 no dentist?

Im 23 and basically my whole life Ive never been to the dentist , I went once when I was 13 to have a tooth pulled but other than than I never went to the dentist , my parents never had enough money to take us. Now that Im older and I have my own kids I know how important it is to take them to the dentist every 6 months. About 4 years ago I noticed my teeth started decaying , the back two molars are almost completely gone from cavities and I have other cavities that are now coming up but it has never hurt until now - I can barely talk and all my words are slurred because my teeth are sooo sensative. I know its important that I see a dentist right away but Im scared and embarrassed that my teeth are soooo bad and Im scared about what the dentist is going to say. Im also scared about how much money it is going to cost me , I dont have insurance for myself . Any advice or tips on how to deal with this situation or maybe a dental Insurance info can help ??? And what can I expect when Igo.

  1. No offense.. Thats DISGUSTING!!! GET IN THERE AND MAKE AN APPOINTMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EWWW>> OMG
  2. You'd better go ASAP. That kind of decay can lead to other, sometimes very serious health problems because that decay is being ingested by you. Get over being scared; you have a kid so you need to take care of yourself when you're young so that your kid won't have to when you're old.

  4. Screw those other people rude a$$ comments,I know what you mean though I do go to the dentist I know how you feel with no insurance.First of all just go in their to ask how much it will cost to get a tooth pulled.It will cost about 58$ for the initial get in and about 22$ for the ex ray of the tooth you want taken care of.So gather up about 80$ and go in to talk to him,Trust me he's a dentist,he's seen tweekers and all sorts of gross stuff,yours is not the worst.When ever I go in with that much money they usually just do the tooth you want taken care of then you make payments,so good luck and take care.
