if the hospital can render dental treatment, going to hospital is acceptable. Whta's the difference between getting dental treatemnt from hospital and dental office in terms of financial charge ? it sounds you can afford to get treatment from hospital and you can not afford the treatment from dental office.

At the very least you should go to the ER for antibiotics because it sounds like, if it isn't already, an infection is setting in.
