My original dentist did 2 root canals in 8th grade, never got crowns or caps just filling. In 10th grade the filling on the left was gone and tooth was broken, they pulled the tooth.

I went to a different dentist last month (21 now) and they did xrays and said there was an infection on the right side, the fillings all gone. they gave me a paper with 4 referrals of endos accepting medicaid. 3/4 no longer accept it.

Im not sure if theyd pull it or cap it or something, but I dont really have a primary dentist anymore, do you think I should try to become a patient at for Temple?

That’s your call. It sounds like you have a lot going on. If you are tight of finances, I would definitely become a temple patient. It’s a process, but if you show motivation to constantly come in for your appts, you can get things done somewhat quicker and with better affordability relative to outside dentists. Good luck
