Unhappy A broken tooth and pain making me want to cry

I hate that my teeth aer falling apart. It's just terrible. I am in so much pain from this newly broken tooth I can hardly eat, drink and enjoy it and I am just so iritable it's not funny.

I got an appointment to get it yanked but a filling would save it, it just kills me that we're so completely stuck on medicaid with NO DENTAL coverage at all. I told mom today I feel they are killing us this way because teeth affect your overall health and mine are failing.

How come they can make great medical and dental coverage for politicians that WE PAY FOR but they can't cover simple fillings and cleanings for the regular people? It's so unfair, I feel so wretched again, all because a tiny piece of this tooth fell out over the weekend and I haven't stopped hurting since.

I've already lost four chewing teeth, and truly they are all cracked to the gum line because of the big fillings which expanded and contracted to crack every single molar in my mouth. It's just EVIL and I wanted to complain. I am gonna have to suffer so much once I get some money from the memoir, I will most like have them all pulled and go with partials and venears for the front ones assuming they aren't messed up too.

Dear Pam,

Sending lots of hugs.
Teeth pain is no fun.
And the gov should be paying for this -- plain and simple.

It just irks me no end that I have to suffer along with millions of others that don't have any hope of getting simple fillings to save their slowly decaying teeth. It's just so unfair. Maybe Obama will straighten the mess out with Medicare and Medicaid but I won't hold my breath. I am sitting here editing and feel awful, got a elavated temp and needed the hugs. Thank you Mari.

Oh pammy, when your teeth hurt your whole body hurts.
You are right, it isn't fair.
Dental care should be included.
There are a couple of over the counter numbing agents, ora jel, I am sure there are others.
Is there a teaching school like bobby went to that had a sliding scale fee.
Could you look into that at all?

I wish I could say things are better, but only in regards to Jackie are things better. I just feel so depressed, over my teeth...It's just so unfair. The pain of bad teeth really hurts like nothing else.

Jackie's school variety show was today, it was awesome too. He got to play with the boys and it was fun. After the school play I brought him home with Burger King for snack today. His behaviorist and new aid were both there and we all met his teacher. Very nice thing to be able to, go to a special needs school's Winter Variety show. You never know what you're gonna get. LOL!
