I need my wisdom teeth out and cannot find an oral surgeon around here that takes my insurance – PA Medicaid (Gateway Health Insurance). I looked online and also called the insurance company (they do the same search that I did on their site) and nothing came up, so they’re calling me back next week but I can’t wait that long to get these out!
Anyone from PA had Medicaid/Gateway and got their wisdom teeth out? Where at? I honestly do not care where in PA – as long as it’s in the state because I’ll travel anywhere to get this done, they rotted out one of my back teeth and it hurts SOOOO bad!
Go to the hospital, there are always Drs on call!
You might try calling a local oral surgeons office. Sometimes the doctor or staff know of other oral surgeons who do take Medicaid and they can refer to one.
You poor thing, i feel for you.
I had a split abscessed wisdom tooth and couldn’t get any help, my dentist wouldn’t do it as it was too complicated and i needed an oral surgeon.
I don’t live near so unfortunately i cant give any advise about where to go, but in terms of the pain, painkillers dont really work, clove oil does work but burns a little.
Take anything with alot of codeine at night, doesn’t get rid of pain but makes you drowsy enough to sleep, i couldn’t lie down or sleep at all when mine were messing up.
