Tooth decay is a disease process where acids created by specific types of oral bacteria cause damage to the calcified tissues of a tooth

There is no other option except going to the dentist. Other people are uninsured and they go. A third of my patients are uninsured.
Individual dental plans are uniformly a bad investment and not worth the money.
If you have more time than money and live fairly close to a dental school, that could be an option for you. Otherwise, find an ex-military dentist who can do large silver amalgam fillings on back teeth instead of crowns, which cost a whole lot more money.

We tackle number of patients without insurance. It is not a big deal. As you discussed your problem, according to it you should see a doctor.

Why don't you consult a good dental hospital and i think if you don't consult one soon then this is going to spread further and may harm your other teeth too.

I think you should go to your dentist and do proper treatment.
