[|Human|] I have a large hole in the far back tooth on the left upper side.  There was a filling in the tooth at one point, not to sure when it came out.  I was in pain back in October so I went to the dentist and they took an xray and stated that the pain was coming from my lower back tooth, inwhich I had a root canal on.  But the dentist said that the xray showed a large cavity in the upper tooth.  After the root canal everything was fine, until about a month ago.  I was waking up in the middle of the night is extreme pain and it is on and off thru out the day.  Called the dentist and he gave me antibotics and said I would need a root canal or need to get it pulled (which he was leaning towards).  The reason I am holding out is I have no dental insurance and funds are tight.  But it to the point now where I am in so pain and cant hold out anymore.  So how much is getting a tooth pulled?? Should I get sedated, since its a molar?? and is this the best option??
[|AI|]  Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Read your query. I can understand your predicament. Removal of all teeth irrespective of molars need anesthesia to be pulled out, so that the procedure is of no danger to the person. If you are not in a position of having Root Canal Treatment done, i would advise you have the extraction of the tooth at the earliest to avoid getting recurrent pain and infection. Follow the post extractions instructions properly. Antibiotics and painkillers are to be taken appropriately. Hope this was helpful. Thnaks and regards.
