Hello kbee

You are welcome..

My dentist isn't cheap either but cheaper than others I guess. I just go when I have to and owe him from last time.  See if the regular dentist is willing to work out a payment plan so you can get it pulled...

I will keep my eyes out and check the link again for a place by you that maybe you could use...
