They sell stuff for this at department stores like Walmart, but it's a TEMPORARY fix until you can get into the dentist. It's like putty, you squeeze it into the tooth and it hardens in a few minutes.
Edit: Also it's only like $3
But what if I get shot in the stomach? Isn't it OK to swallow like 50 of those little tubes of super glue to patch up the hole?also, plz dont ingest superglue
Probably unlikely, but if you live near the border of Mexico, you can get a tooth filling for WAY less. I can't quote you for obvious reasons, but I'd be surprised if it were more than 80 dollars.
If they do that though it will lead to bone loss, and then the rest of their teeth shifting thanks to the added space. Considering they'll have a hard time paying for a filling I highly doubt they'll be able to afford an implant to replace it.See if the dentist will pull it instead of fixing it, if you can't afford to fix it. I had a broken tooth and they gave me the option to pull it for like $20. I opted to get it fixed but at least the option was there.

For the last few days ive had a pain in one of my molars and ive noticed there is a piece of filling missing. I think it may have broken off due to me clenching my teeth a lot.
Im broke as fuck right now and i was quoted $400 just to fix it. Anyone here ever fill in a tooth before? I was thinking of slowly dropping super glue in the hope until it filled in.
Is there another substance i can use to cover it up?
You have to clean the cavity out first before you fill it up.

New toothes are more expensive. Don't do that shit or you will pay later for that.
Just to give you an estimation. I live in Germany and I get two new toothes in the next few months. Will cost me about 7000 altogether...in Germany.
Your teeths are one of the most important things that you have, don't abuse them and always care them or you will pay for that.
I had two done recently and they were about 35 dollars each. And that's with a good doctor, I could have gone cheaper. Not near the border though, so they can probably gouge the price a bit to medical tourists.
It's more than just a filling if it's costing him $400.Why the heck is a dental filling $400 for god's sake. That's a week's worth of minimum wage.
Cost of visiting a doctor is just ridiculous in the US.
don't be an idiot. go to the dentist before you get an infection that costs even more money to fix.
$400 for a filling? Something's not right. You sure you don't need a root canal?
Dont be afraid to get quotes from another dentist OP.
My brother lost every one of his upper teeth despite most of them not having physical damage because he let an infection eat at the base of his jaw. And waited until he couldn't physically handle the pain anymore.Fucking this.
My friend had a cavity for two years and had constant jaw pain and headaches. Hi finally went to the dentist and they found he had an infection that was halfway to his eye.
He didnt realize that a tooth infection can kill you and freaked out when he found out.
And missing teeth not only lead to lasting eating/speech problems, but even facial malformation and cognitive issues 😮
