Ick! Please Help?


Question:
I'm under my mom and I lost my insurance several months ago because I took the semester off from college. I just got reinstated few weeks ago. Anyways, a few months ago I lost several of my fillings--in succession. Because of this when I accidentally bit down on a steak bone I lost two of my right back teeth (not right away) and one of them is only half gone, some is still embedded on the bottom. On my left, my top back teeth has a big hole and my tooth is throbbing! Directly below it is another that lost a huge chunk of the filling. I'm so embarassed going to the dentist. I couldn't do anything about it during the time I had no insurance. I have an appointment this friday but I don't think they cover bridges, crowns or whatever they do to replace my missing teeth. What should I do?

Answers:
If you have already been on erythromycin for 2 days and you aren't better, you should change your antibiotic. I recommend 800000 U penicillin (1injection),& 250mg metronidazole tablets+500 mg cephalexin capsules every 6 hours for 5 days. in this way your abscess will become better so your pain would be gone! but becarefull these antibiotics are so strong and you may develop a additive fungal infection so you may need multivitamins to avoid that.
What can you do but go and see what your insurance will handle. You may be able to get on a payment plan for the rest.
