Dentist's orders

So my tooth is killing me. I'm guessing that my filling disattached itself or I have a few new cavities. I've resorted to using the left side of my mouth to eat. Each time I each solid food I get a jolt of pain that almost sends me into tears. If anyone wants to know why I don't have health insurance... it's pretty simple. It's because I'm a full time student (which equates to me having no full time job) and I'm living off of the GI bill (which is barely enough to live by since I'm living in Denver--high COLA). Oh... and another reason....   THIS IS THE UNITED STATES! Most people can't afford health care. Especially the students. Which sucks b/c there are probably illegals out there someone who are reaping the benefits of the system by getting knocked up and visiting the emergency rooms (tax payers' expense!) Anyhow, I contacted the Dental School and hopefully the can call me back during the week. They have residency programs in which I can sign up and become a full-on patient. Hopefully it doesn't have to be extracted but at this point...  i don't really care. I need to know why my tooth is bothering me and I'm a bit PO'd because I'm not a sugar/candy (I'm NOT a fan of chocolate!) fan. I will buy sweets every now and then but I'm not the normal fat, American oger that many people are these days.

p.s. For those who say that flossing and brushing on the regular pays-off...   YOU CAN KISS MY BLACK ASS.... because it obviously  DOESN'T!
