Hi. I am an LPN with no medical insurance. I am needing some dental work. I have one tooth with a really bad cavity that needs to be either extracted or a root canal. The problem is that I cannot afford to pay for a root canal no matter what the price and I can't really afford to have it extracted due to that i have had 4 extractions already and I am only 30 and do NOT want to venture to dentures this early in life, that would be so embarassing for me. Any suggestions or comments would greatly help with making my decision.
