Fyi on the root canal (I have no idea how the oil might impact this - this is from a totally conventional dentistry standpoint) when it causes problems, which can be from a few days -> months, it will likely be a more severe infection. People have died from unattended tooth infection (dh knew one
) I know this doesn't have any impact on your inability to afford the tx
it's always best to keep a tooth if you can, but if you can't, and care credit is not an option, I know a very good oral surgeon in your area.
