Restore Health and Confidence: Donate for Dental Surgeries
Donation protected
Hi everyone,
Recently I was informed by my dentist that I have a condition in one of my lower canines called “tooth resorption”. Essentially, my body is having an auto immune response to trauma to the area, and my tooth is now dying.
In speaking to an Endodontist, I was told that my tooth is so internally decayed that it is not salvageable. So, I am now looking at a long medical process.
I have been scheduled for three surgeries. The first being a removal of the tooth and a bone graph. Because canines have such large roots, I have to have my bone graphed before I can get an implant. I have to let this heal, and then go back in for a second surgery, in which they will put in the implant device (but not the tooth). The final surgery will be getting the tooth/crown officially put in. What this means is that I am looking at a year of surgeries and healing, all while missing a tooth (though I will be given fake teeth along the way). The total for all my procedures and fake teeth is going to be $8500. In case it was not clear, I do not have this money available or dental insurance, but I very much do need these surgeries. I know times are hard for everyone right now, any help that can be given would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
