Even just to get an examine and x-rays, it's just not affordable.

Getting a second opinion from a different dentist is actually pretty smart. In any case, did you find out what's causing the pressure on your tooth that underwent root canal? I hope that everything works out well for you. Thanks for sharing that, Linda! All the best! :)<br /><br /><a href="http://downtowndentalsc.blogspot.com/2015/03/begin-good-oral-health-early-by.html" rel="nofollow">Eunice Greer @ Downtown Dental SC</a>Eunice Greerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07625787827052299247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356815487392618550.post-85053644702203154282015-03-23T06:45:04.632-07:002015-03-23T06:45:04.632-07:00High quality info here!

I find this blog. One tip to several comments that might be helpful. Since most of my family's health issues have always been taken care of more than sufficiently with homeopathy I add this comment. The fine nerve endings tampered with in the process of a root canal can take a VERY long time to heal. Hypericum Perf., in homeopathic tincture or pellet form, is for nerve ending damage. If interested, someone can find a homeopath or a store that has knowledgable staff. The remedy would likely be taken only a few times to notice a desirable effect. And, it costs at most $10!. This will not conflict with any meds someone is taking, Just passing that along. Useful for any injury, surgery, stitches, dental.... where there has been nerve damage.Anastasia Kitakis Hurlin (Stacey Hurlin)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13970981383197562945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356815487392618550.post-72897167597973020582015-02-24T22:05:48.249-08:002015-02-24T22:05:48.249-08:00I had trouble for a long time with a root canal to...I had trouble for a long time with a root canal too.

The details you've put in describing what kind of millieu those alternate dental visits would be in are really helpful. We certainly do not have to be stuck in terms of the kind of dental treatments we can get. There are a lot we can choose from, and we deserve to do so. Thanks for sharing!

All these people must get paid. That is one reason their costs are so high. I drive to forty mile south to where we used to live to see the dentist because it is so much cheaper than it is here.

So many went that several of the Flagstaff dentists stripped their shops and started charging less! None of the people I knew who went to Mexico had problems with their care.

Some may say that the care here is much better than other countries, but I don't think so. I think you still have to shop around, get references, check out the provider and their facility. A person can still get great medical - and now I know dental - care in a different country, for much less money.
