Dentist, Optometrist, Financial Anxieties

I have to go to the dentist soon:-( I've been putting it off, but my mother worries my cavities will need root canals if I wait too long. I hope that's not already an issue... Several teeth of mine hurt from time to time, but one of them especially. Anything chewy is terrible. I'm really hoping it all won't be too expensive. I'm trying to save up for an eye appointment to get more contacts and I'm afraid they'll want to also change my glasses prescription if I go in and they don't test me with my glasses (I see much more clearly -- especially typing -- with my glasses than with my contacts, even though they are the same prescription). I definitely don't want new lenses for my glasses. Unfortunately I still let financial worries get to me. I probably won't see someone about my eyes for a few more months, so that's more time to save money.
