Dental Disaster

Hello, I am coming to you as my family and friends to help me be able to get my mouth/teeth fixed. So, just a little back story to help y'all understand how I have dealt with my teeth all my life. The first time I went to the dentist I was just 5 years old and spent 4 hours there. Two hours before lunch and 2 hours after lunch. So...that was just the beginning of my dental issues...thanks to inheriting the bad teeth from my Mom. My teeth were so bad at times that I could just be chewing gum and my teeth would just break apart! By the time I was 19 I was starting to get my teeth capped...so over the next few years I got my teeth "fixed". But since my teeth were done by several dentist and over the course of about 7-10 years, my teeth do not all line up and my bite is off. Also I have gotten a bacteria in the last couple years and now I have some teeth with deep cavities and need new caps/crowns on them. Plus with my bite being off I really need a "full mouth rehab" as they put it in dentist terms. That means they will repair the teeth that need to be fixed, build up some so that my bite will be correct and then my jaw will not have to slide over when closing my mouth.

This work will need to be done over the next year... When they quoted me the price of all the work that needs to be done I about fell out out of the dentist chair...which is almost $30,000. I will be driving 2 hours to even get that price!

So at the advice from our deacon, I am putting my pride to the side and asking for some financial help.

Thank you in advance...Gladwin and Lisa
