Help Me Restore My Smile and Reclaim my Life

My name is Steven and behind me lies a past marked by drug addiction. I've battled my way to recovery and I'm proud of the life I've built, but one painful scar lingers – the loss of my teeth. This is a secret I bear with deep shame.

For two years, I've navigated a maze of insurance denials and bureaucratic nightmares. My goal is simple – to replace my missing teeth and regain the ability to eat without pain. I have a compromised immune system, making it necessary to have my teeth extracted in a hospital setting. However, the approved surgeons lack the necessary hospital privileges, leaving me trapped in this frustrating cycle.

Can you imagine the difficulty of chewing, the persistent ache, and the embarrassment of hiding your smile? Every day, I'm reminded of the darkest chapter of my life. This month, I have a birthday wish. My ultimate dream is to have a new smile, to finally banish the physical reminder of my past addiction.

I'm not one to ask for help, but I'm desperate. This is my last plea. With your support, I can finally afford the procedures I need. Any contribution, no matter how small, will make a difference. It will bring me one step closer to healing, inside and out.

I know there are countless worthy causes. If you can, please consider helping me reclaim what was lost. I promise that the kindness you show me will not go to waste. Once I can smile without shame, I will dedicate myself to paying your generosity forward and helping others find their path to recovery.

These funds will help go towards a full mouth extraction along with a set of dentures which come to about $1700 per bridge.
