having some tooth sensitivity and dull pain since late FEB, but dont have dental insurance, because i had to voluntarily go off it from state subsidized healthcare because i just make just enough not to be covered. had to buy ACA healthcare, dental insurance is non-existent and individual plans dont cover much if anything, complicated by the fact that some dentist will not accept certain dental plans because of low reimbursements, or very long waits to get reimbursed. i had to see a emergency dentists, luckily in my area but it was several hundred for a limited exam and x ray and they want do a full exam and cleaning for more than twice that. currently looking for options(debating on going back to the old dentist i was with state healthcare who was so-so, and not great) tried changing hours so i can properly covered, but our supervisor gave an attitude and basically rejected my request and start nitpicking on other things just because i did that, the "managers' higher than him are totally useless in this matter(he cited high amount of traffic in the business so its super busy, and he low staff so he dint want to do anything that would inconvenience him.) STAFFING issue isnt my problem, its the supes, you are the one causing high turnover because you keep scheduling too much hours they cant easily cover
