Help Restore a Smile: Support Dental Care
Donation protected
One minute, you think you’re doing the right thing for your sanity and mental health by taking an unconventional, nontraditional path to pursue your dreams (Childcare Provider, Writer, Model, Creative).
Till it’s time to pay for medical expenses, like dental care, whether I was working a job or not, timing has never been on my side to secure consistent dental care & treatment. The only thing I’ve been able to afford is extractions, and I’m barely 30, and I am losing more teeth than somebody my age should. I have no desire for veneers. I’ve always loved my smile, but as my dental health declines, it’s been weighing on my mental health, making me self-conscious and discouraged from following my dreams. I no longer can afford the time to be on my side to secure the dental work I need. So, I’m putting my pride & personal feelings aside and asking for help. The quicker I can secure the financial support to correct my smile, the faster & better I can continue to put myself out there and pursue my dreams. I've sourced a dentist with affordable implants; I will need two. After having my side tooth pulled long ago, my teeth have shifted and closed the gap; however, the teeth that now reserve that spot are chipped, and I have a metal fill-in that's now visible. I will be getting it extracted and replaced with an implant.
