What can you do when you have an aching toothache (wisdom tooth that needs to be pulled) and no insurance?
The best answer
Go to the dentist! a wisdom tooth could cause an infection that could make you very very ill. A dentist will only charge you a couple hundred $'s for extraction and if you tell them ahead of time, they will take payments. You could find a dental school in your area, they may do it for a fraction of the cost, but you are getting people who have no experience, and the pain level could be worse.

Eat lots of candy let it be pulled naturally, or try to ask some advise to your dentist!
Wisdom teeth can be dangerous, with no dental insurance your best bet is to try and find some dort of community dental clinic, or hope that you know someone training to be a dentist.
I was poor when I needed mine pulled. I was lucky to live in a town with a Dental School, and got it down for less than $100 by a 3rd year Dental student. If you're within a few hours of one, it's worth the trip.
