I have a back story. I’m 42 now and back in the early 20’s I was doing some drugs that I shouldn’t have been doing. I was shy and was influenced by the wrong individuals. I had braces on at the time. This is what is causing me a lot of issues right now. In 2005 I ended up getting heart failure and almost died. My ejection fraction was at 10 to 15% and was given 6 to 12 months to live. So BIG wake up call. I stopped doing the drugs and cleaned up my act. Got rid of those bad influential people that I knew. I received a second chance. I now have a loving husband and am a proud mom of 3 young boys. I’m also found Christ and have started going to church where I attend bible study and have turned my life around. I’ve been clean ever since and will never go back. Due to the damage that the drugs had done to my teeth. I am missing all of my back bottom and top teeth. They have all been pulled. I had facial cavities on my top front teeth which I have fixed those issues by getting crowns on my top front teeth, but my back teeth are the issue. It’s hard to eat food and doesn’t make me feel good about myself. I’m so tired of soup and mashed potatoes too which is pretty much all I can eat! 😊 I need to get bridges or dentures or implants on the bottom and top. They need to do bone grafting as well. I have looked at options such as dentures but the overall cost I cannot afford without going into complete debt and not making monthly payments on something else that is crucial like the mortgage or gas. The estimates are overwhelming. We live paycheck to paycheck as many others are living with currently. My oldest son also has dental work needed. I’m at a loss. I maxed out my CareCredit card with all of my dental care that I’ve had so far and really need some help. It’s like never ending and I pray to see the end sooner than never. I need to ask for help from you all. If you can help and spare anything I’d greatly appreciate it and it will not go unappreciated. God bless each and every one of you and thank you for reading this.
Help with crushing dental bill.
Hi my name is Sam. My teeth have been badly eroded and ground down due to years of complications from acid reflux. I have tried my best to take care of and minimize this issue, but unfortunately my teeth have become so worn and prone to chipping that a series of dentists agree that my only option at this point is oral reconstructive surgery. This will require most of my teeth to be capped and the remaining to be reshaped. The estimated cost from a medical school that I am going to is estimated at 20,000. On a social workers salary, this is absolutely debilitating, so I am turning to the kindness of strangers for help. Please help me save my smile. Anything is greatly appreciated more than you know. Thank to everyone who can spare anything.

Urgent need of dental help after years of sacrifice!
Hi…
This is something very hard for me to do, I’ve always been very uncomfortable asking for help, especially financial help, but I’ve reached a point where I am truly desperate.
I’ve had a very unfortunate dental history. In my teens I had an excellent dentist, unfortunately, when he retired I ended up having to find a new NHS dentist.
At about 17, I had an incident where a door swung shut into my face and chipped one of my front teeth.
The dentist at the time frankly did a terrible job of repairing this, it was quite clear the ‘filling’ he made to repair this joined my two front teeth together. It was also quite a painful experience, something I’d not encountered before at the dentist, largely due to how excellent my childhood dentist was.
This resulted in me avoiding appointments with that dentist, I ultimately was then removed from their practice and had to find another NHS dentist.
I met my partner at 19, she was a couple of years older than me and had a 1-year-old son, who had essentially been abused and then abandoned by his biological dad. As our relationship grew I took on the role of his dad, and raised him as my own, we then had a child of our own a few years later.
Unfortunately, a few months after he was born, I ended up out of work after a car accident, the only marginal advantage to this was at the time, I could get free dentistry (to an extent on the NHS), and had recently started having some toothache.
I went for a checkup and it was discovered I had picked up an infection that resulted in some of my back teeth decaying rapidly, I was given a course of antibiotics and then had all 4 drilled and filled.
However, it turned out the infection wasn’t completely gone, and about a year later, all 4 of those teeth had the fillings fall out and break apart within a couple of days of each other.
I was however back in work at this point but we were on a breadline, and I couldn’t afford the NHS fees. We were at a point where I was skipping meals to ensure my missus and my boys had enough to eat, that we could pay bills, etc.
Due to not attending any appointments, I was taken off the register and without an NHS dentist.
After about 5 years, I was able to take on a second job, although I was then unable to find an NHS dentist, due to the massive waiting lists there were in the UK.
We then ended up with another mouth to feed (contraception failure, not intended), and once again I found myself having to skip meals, to feed the family, etc.
Over this time, despite efforts to keep my teeth as well looked after as possible, pain, inflammation, abscess, etc. made it very hard to brush properly a lot of the time.
Even now, I have to take ibuprofen prior to brushing my teeth, and it’s still painful. As well as using an antiseptic mouthwash daily to keep things controlled.
As money started to get marginally better, new job, and was then quickly promoted, I was able to possibly afford some NHS treatment again but was still on the waiting list.
I managed as a matter of luck and perseverance to get registered with an NHS dentist at the end of 2019. I had an assessment and their plan was to remove 7 of my rear teeth. They said implants would be better, but they don’t offer them (both as a practice and via NHS) and I would need dentures.
I explained due to the nature of my work, I would need to plan this in advance as both roles are customer-facing, one more than the other, and being able to talk is essential. They said that wouldn’t be an issue.
However, shortly before the end of 2019 I had the first 2 removed, I requested they did more as explained it needed to be a reasonably quick process overall. They said it’s always been policy not to remove more than 2 teeth at a time.
In between assessment and this appointment, I’d sustained a knee to the face which had damaged the previously botched filling on the front teeth from when I was 17. They said they’d address it at the next appointment.
However, Covid then happened and I was back to not being able to get an appointment/have any work done. During this time, problems progressed, especially at the front where the broken filling had become painful. This, unfortunately, resulted in part of that tooth breaking away, which has had left a noticeable half tooth gap and had a significant impact on my mental health/self-esteem.
The dentist after reopening in 2021, became very awkward about booking appointments so far in advance, and it became difficult to get anything to work around my employment. Money was again an issue for us, and I am again working multiple jobs so being able to arrange and plan in advance is key.
I was then unable to attend the first appointment since, as I had come down ill (not covid, but still not able to have the appointment).
Shortly after this, I was walking back from the school run and a chipping lorry drove through the highstreet and spilt some stone chippings, one of which was then ‘shot’ from the moving tyre and hit me in the face. This damaged two of my teeth, the one intact of the front teeth has a chunk from the side chipped out, the tooth next to that was badly destroyed. Obviously, my mouth was very sore and swollen.
This has left me with most of my top row of teeth damaged significantly, beyond repair or in need of extraction.
I’ve spoken to the dentist, and they’ve said really I should be looking at going private and having the top row replaced with an “4-in-1” implant, but it won’t be done on NHS and they can’t do it.
They’ve said if I can’t afford that I’ll just have to continue having 2 teeth removed at a time until they are all removed and I can have dentures fitted after a recovery period.
I’ve explained how that would leave me unable to do my job and they essentially had a “that’s how it is” attitude.
I’ve looked into this “4-in-1” implant and it looks like it would cost at least £10k, which I simply cannot afford, but comes at the advantage I would be able to essentially have the work completed in a single day, and would allow me to continue being able to work my jobs.
If there is anyone who can afford to help me, this would change my life.
Over the last 15 years, I and my family have battled with hardship and challenge after challenge, to the point, that it feels like we’re cursed. My mental health has not been good for a long time, and this only exacerbates it, the recent issues are more so as my confidence and self-esteem have dropped. The few occasions I have reason to smile are always bittersweet, as I quickly become self-conscious of how hideous my teeth are now.
Being able to have those implants would be entirely life-changing.

Need help with the most important thing in life!
Hello everyone, I am sure you have heard all the sob stories about how people need help with this and that. I unfortunately am one of those people who could really use some help. I have struggled all my adult life it seems. I lost my license when I was 17 for an auto accident that not only totaled my car, and lost my license in which I have never been able to get back and I am 42 now, but in the accident the other driver who was at fault, because they ran a red light, and then fled the scene. I was under the influence so my insurance dropped me, I lost my license and was injured in the accident. I hit my face really hard on the steering wheel, and it broke 12 teeth, and I broke my femur. I was unable to receive any medical help from the insurance company because of being under the influence of alcohol. Its been a downward spiral ever since.
I have self medicated myself thru life and I just want to be able to smile again. I had such a promising future and its been just a horrible life.
I would do anything if I was given just half a chance at being normal.
I spent over $10,000 on reconstructive surgery and pulling some of the teeth and fixing some but it just wasn’t enough to fix the whole problem. I spent $27,000 paying back the hospital for the titanium bar the put in the middle of my broken femur.
I am on here grasping at straws hoping there is some angel out there that is willing to help me get my life back that I lost all those years ago. It all happened so fast, and I have regretted every decision I made that night, ever since.
I have given up alcohol and haven’t touched the stuff in over 10 years so that is one gleeming light at the end of the tunnel I suppose.
I would be forever grateful of anyone who would help me. I am trying to raise $12,000 for the entire procedure of pulling the rest of the teeth and doing implants on the upper front teeth and a bridge on the lower front, and then some sort of dentures for the rest of the teeth. I am afraid that since its been so long since I seen a dentist and I have let the teeth go so long without fixing or getting any dental care done that the broken and rotten teeth have spread into the jawbone and some of the dental implants will be unsuccessful, at which point I would have to opt in for pulling them and just doing dentures for some portion if not all. I believe the $12,000 would cover either procedure, if it ends up being more, I would be able to do it on a payment plan I believe. I am unsure if the money would cover it all but it would get me closer then I have been in a long time. Its really been a depressing situation that I have been unable to recover from, and it has dictated every aspect of my life ever since.
I had so much confidence and such a beautiful smile when I was becoming an adult. I wish I could go back to that evening and decline all the alcohol that I was given, or atleast find a safer ride. I have cried myself to sleep so many nights, the pain was horrendous and altho I was in the hospital for a short stint they did not help me with the dental situation. They just made sure I was alive and they mainly focused on my leg and I had to learn how to rewalk and everything. It was so hard to get life back to somewhat normal. I lost a great job I had, and lost the ability to do lots of other type jobs. I apologize if my story seemed strange or lacking any details. I am unsure of how to do this and I have asked for help from so many different people and I assume this will most likely be just like all those other times. Unsuccessful. Hopefully that angel I am looking for stumbles upon this story and is willing to help me. If the cost is lower I can always refund the extra money but I think I am being modest on the amount I am asking for. I believe it will most likely cost more. If anyone donates and would like to receive copies of the billing statements or the estimates for repairing the teeth I am more then willing to share that information. I assure you I need the dental help and this is no joke or scam. Thanks for reading my story and I hope you have a blessed day.

Snap-in Dentures
I’m 39 years old. In my 20s and early 30s I was sick and throwing up all the time. After tons of doctor appointments and years of hospital visits I finally found out I am allergic to most forms of corn. As you would expect, the daily puking completely destroyed my teeth. Once I knew what was making me so sick I was able to adjust my diet so I don’t throw up anymore. Ever since then I have been fighting an uphill battle trying to save my teeth but the damage is just too great. I’ve been to numerous consultations to find out my options. I am trying to get snap-in dentures. The problem is that I can’t afford it on my own. Everyone I’ve seen has required the money upfront. I simply can’t afford it so I’m desperately trying to get help to pay for it. I’m missing half of my teeth and the ones I do have are chipped or broken. Two of my remaining teeth are infected. I’m begging for help. My teeth look horrible and I’m so embarrassed about it that I hate leaving my house. I hate talking to people face to face because they can see my teeth when I talk. I cry myself to sleep some nights because of my teeth. It’s so depressing to look in the mirror. I’m hoping for a miracle.

Desperate Dental Help – https://www.paypal.me/ahart4u2
Hi my name is Angela, I’m 52 years old. I live in a very small town in Mississippi called Noxapater with about 5 stores and one stop light. I’ve lived in Mississippi all my life and have never traveled outside the United States. When I was 30 years old I was put on Social Security Disability for extreme panic and anxiety attacks. I am on Medicare and Medicaid but that doesn’t pay anything on dental. I was put on an anxiety medication called Tranxene. It made my mouth dry all the time. I just thought that was something normal to live with. Turns out all these years later it affected my teeth.
Today, I only have 14 teeth left, 7 on top, 7 on the bottom. The teeth that are left are crumbling a little everyday. The top teeth are in very bad shape. Some of the teeth have the enamel completely gone and are crumbling away. The top teeth need to be pulled and then need a plate or as known as a top denture immediately after the teeth are pulled.
I’ve been to the dentist to find out what I need to do. She told me I need to get all 7 of my top teeth pulled and get a top denture plate. We are trying to save the bottom teeth as long as possible. The dentist is a low income dental office in Sebastopol, Mississippi that uses a sliding scale based on income. They do not make dentures or fit them. I will have to go somewhere else to do this. I have researched a place in Meridian, Mississippi called Affordable Dentures that some of my other friends and family have used to get their dentures. I have not been there personally because it cost money for the visit. The dentist at Sebastopol said she could pull all the teeth and I needed to get the plate in the same day. It cost $228 for 3 teeth to be pulled. I don’t know what it would cost for all 7. All I can go by is the website on Affordable Dentures for the price for the top denture plate which starts at Premium Dentures $1175 and that is not the highest quality denture. It is next to the highest. The highest is Ultimate Fit; it starts at $1479 for one plate. It says in the instructions not to send a screenshot of a site for you to look at but that is all I have because I cannot afford to go to the visit.
I showed my Grandmother my teeth today. She is 89 and will be 90 in November. She couldn’t believe the awful shape my teeth were in. She wanted to know if I had them checked lately that it looked like cancer. I had to reassure her I had them checked and the dentist said nothing of cancer. My Grandmother has better and more natural teeth than I. It is very embarrassing to smile or go about your life or everyday tasks when your teeth look like this. It really does depress me and makes me not want to be around other people. I’ve not mentioned the health risk of having bad teeth. They need to come out. If they get very bad the infection can get in the bloodstream and kill you so I’m told. I’ve had that happen to a few family members.
I love attending church and sometimes I find it hard to attend but I must push myself to go. I’m a self conscious person anyway. I pray this letter is sufficient. I know with your help my life will change dramatically. It will make it easier to eat. I won’t be afraid to smile, laugh or wonder if my teeth are showing. I can be in a group or just around people and enjoy myself. I’m asking for $2000 to $2200 for the teeth to be pulled, the top denture and to get to the two dentist. I hope you see within your heart and mind to help me.
Thank you
Angela

Dental filling cost
I didn’t expect myself to be here asking for money. I recently got laid off from my job due to a shortage of work and in search for another one. I don’t know how long that will take. The job I worked didn’t pay me that well since it wasn’t a consistent job. Some weeks, I would get zero shifts while other can be anywhere from 1 – 5 and it can be anywhere from 4 hours up to 8 hours if I’m lucky. It was quite hard to survive but I managed. I do live with my parents which made working this job more bearable since I didn’t have to pay rent.
I recently got a dental check-up and was told I required fillings for my cavities. Obviously, I would want to get it fixed up ASAP since I don’t want future me to regret it down the line. It has happened a few times in the past with other health-related issues. I have spoken to my parents about it seeing if they are willing to help, to there response was a no. My parents are don’t really like the dentist and only see them as predators for money. Everything the dentist say is just a way for them to earn more money from you.
With that said, I don’t know when I will be able to find another job, especially with all the talk about recession, hiring freezes and layoffs. The cost will be around $700 which is quite a big amount and I don’t have insurance either.
I would appreciate any help and thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Lost my Dentures
Losing my dentures has been the most humiliating experience I’ve ever had. My Medicare insurance doesn’t cover getting another set and being on social security hassle it impossible for me to get any help with financing. Starting this fund and asking for help has been really hard for me but I have no choice. I really do appreciate anyone that can help me and wish my luck. Thanks Dave
Desperately need dental work for mom of 3!
This has been a very long and stressful journey for me. I never had any oral health problems my entire life. I had good oral habits and took care of myself. However, about 6 years ago I was leaving a bad relationship and was evicted from my apartment. Homeless, I found out that I was pregnant! For 9 whole months me and my daughter slept on the floor in my mothers apartment an hour away from where I work. My oldest son was living with my dad, in order to finish the school year and have a normal day to day. After the 9 months my grandmother helped me find an apartment for my children and I, while I commuted back and forth to work. During this time, I didn’t see a dentist, I had trouble sleeping, I was depressed, and I was not taking care of myself. I avoided leaving the house, and ate away my sadness. I knew that my teeth were looking bad, but I didn’t even want to look in the mirror. After I was financially stable again I started seeing a dentist regularly in order to fill in the cavities. I spent out of pocket over 4000 to fill the cavities, get root canals and crowns. Then there was an infection that spread on the right side of my mouth. The decay keeps getting worse because I was maxed out financially, and ruined my good credit with loans. I work very hard, and make sure my children are taken care of. However, the cost of my current dental work would be over 13,000. I would lose my job if I can’t get my teeth fixed. I work directly with people, at the moment I’m still wearing a mask to cover my broken smile. A pretty face, but when I open my mouth people assume I’m a drug user. It hurts my self esteem and confidence. I can’t believe that I have spent thousands already and my teeth still look so terrible, even though I brush twice a day. I have no other options at the moment unless someone helps me pay for it. I do not come from a rich family, we have learned to work hard and earn everything that we have. However, the longer that I wait, the worse that it gets. I don’t know how much longer I can wear a mask. My credit score was greatly effected by care credit loans, covid, and inability to pay bills on time. I’m struggling to buy food for our family, let alone any extra expenses. I even started delivering groceries for extra money but it is putting wear and tear on my vehicle, and with the rising gas prices I wonder if it’s worth it. I’m a good person, a mom who tries her best. But, I don’t feel my best with teeth that are deteriorating. Due to enamel loss, medication, poor healthcare coverage, this is the spot that I am I’m currently. I really need a helping hand.
Help for new teeth
Hello, I am Aleksandar from Serbia. I am a historian by profession, but I work in the automotive industry. I grew up in a small town and I like a quiet life. I am 31 years old and I have a fiancée with whom
we are expecting a baby at the beginning of next year.
I am happy about that but I also have a sad side which is why I had to sign up here and tell you. Like every child, I loved sweets and everything was fine until I came of age as a teenager. Then the pain in the gums, swelling of the jaw, loss of teeth and rapid decay of already healthy teeth began. Then bad breath, all caused by the decay of gums that were more inflamed with pus than healthy ones. All this brings unbearable pain and sleepless nights under injections and quite strong medications. My teeth would decay quickly and be susceptible to caries, but as a persistent person I often went to the dentist to fix them. And so on indefinitely, suffering immense pain and hoping it will get better. Then there was swelling and pus in my gums where I could neither eat nor eat without strong anesthetics. Literally my life revolved around medication at the time. As if all this was not enough when I visited the dentist I got another bad news. Due to everything that followed me for years, I also got the disease periodontitis, due to which my teeth and gums decay quickly, and now, at the age of 31, I am left without teeth. So far I have a dozen more but they are in very bad shape … I have a job in Serbia but it is a small salary so I earn some $ 500 a month .. With all the obligations about a pregnant wife around the house, various expenses we have for life I solve my health issue. I no longer have the courage to smile at people when I see them, to show happiness when I am happy. .. Treating the whole jaw and installing new teeth would cost me 4500 dollars, I have collected a few thousand dollars in a few years with the help of good friends and some other people, but I am missing 2500 dollars. In support I leave a picture of the current state of my teeth. A friend told me to try here so if I am lucky I will succeed.
I ask people of good will, who can help me as much, that after a long time I have a painless sleep and that I no longer have a phobia to smile or talk. I’ve never asked for anything in my life, but now I’m left with no chance of healing myself. Help me so my baby can see my smile. Thank you.

Trying to have a better quality of life
Greetings and salutations. My name is Darion but my friends call me “Dee”.
I am consciously thankful for just being alive these days, with everything that’s going on in the world today.
I am just a regular person looking for help.
I am asking for $20,000. I really need a boost.
Specifically, for my teeth problem, I’ve been having.
I am 42 years old and I was born in New York. I have never been to a dentist in my life for any type of cleaning or repairs.
Now that all these years have passed, I am missing three teeth in the back of my mouth. Due to self-extraction, which was very painful, to say the least.
Not only that but currently I have this tooth that is just plainly depleting my quality of life in general.
The pure pain that exists every day is almost unbearable. It shifts my concentration to whatever task I am doing. Also, it just takes so much energy to deal with the constant pain every day. It basically takes the zeal out of life itself.
As well as my pain from tooth decay, have irregular teeth in the front which all are distributing a certain degree of pain at the same time. They are also spaced apart making my smile and appearance look less than to the general public in everyday life.
With $20,000 I could get a completely new set of teeth.
Each tooth costs approx. $1,200. If I could get close to 16 new teeth or even 12.
That would give me at least six to eight new teeth at the top and six to eight new teeth at the bottom.
This plea is heartfelt and honest. If I get these teeth I’ll be able to chew food again without pain.
Also, I will use the new set of teeth to attempt to enter into the screen and actors guild and try to make something of myself in the acting world.
This is more of an investment. Whichever good soul has the means and is willing to help me. I will forever be in debt.
I am able to keep in contact and keep anyone who is interested in updates showing my healing progress in my mouth.
It took a lot of thought and guts to reach out to the public about my personal problems. Nevertheless, I have no other options. I have no money and I’ve had a hard time through life in general.
My personal e-mail address is Huhi67000@gmail.com
I need the help desperately. Any funds donated to my cause will be highly appreciated.
My goal is to get new teeth. Small increments will help until I get to the goal at hand.

With the pain of my past behind me, anything could be possible
Thank you for taking time to read this. I am in desperate need of financial assistance to pay for my dental treatment. In 2005, I was involved in a serious car accident. I was given Oxycontin to treat the severe pain from the damage caused to my body. I took my medication every day as prescribed. Unbeknownst to me, I had become dependent on and addicted to opioids. About 15 months later, my doctor stopped refilling my prescription and. I began to feel the horrific nausea, anxiety, insomnia and diarrhea of what I now know was cold turkey opioid withdrawal. My vulnerability and desperation slowly lead me to becoming addicted to heroin. Within a year, I went from having a full and beautiful life to living on the streets, having lost everything. I began dating an older man who was extremely abusive and controlled my entire life. The pain, violence, and abuse that I experienced on the streets was unimaginable. This continued for 10 years until an accidental overdose saved my life.
Going to rehab was my saving grace. I was able to medically detox in a safe and secure environment. I was diagnosed with PTSD from the trauma I experienced during my addiction and began working through that in therapy. For years, I fought very hard to turn my life around. I returned to college and began working with those still suffering on the streets. As my healing progressed, there has always been one thing that standing in my way, making it impossible for me to leave my past behind me, and that is my broken smile. The damage done to my teeth through addiction is devastating. It has become a permanent scar of my past struggles and poor choices. Every time I look in the mirror, I’m haunted by the pain of my past all over again. For me, there is so much shame and embarrassment surrounding my teeth which has affected my life in so many ways. Besides being unable to properly chew food which is extremely uncomfortable as it is, my mouth is also in continuous pain…often times the pain is so great that it becomes debilitating. I am constantly being looked at and judged by the world around me. I can’t talk without covering my mouth which has made it impossible to connect with people, causing me to have the worst social anxiety. I have been turned away from countless job opportunities due to the appearance of my teeth and the negative stigma attached to it. I often hear people saying things like “she’d be so pretty if her teeth weren’t so ****ed up”. Hearing stuff like that hurts so bad. To be honest, I never realized what an important role teeth played in experiencing life and interacting with the world until I lost them. I feel so disconnected from the world and it’s such a lonely feeling. My dental issues have completely robed me of my confidence and self-esteem.
Being able to afford my dental treatment would mean the world to me. It would change the whole trajectory of my life. This dental treatment would give me the confidence to leave the past behind me and the strength to reclaim my life. It would give me the strength to take my power back and find my voice again, create new relationships and find a place where I belong within my community. And then there’s the little things that would mean so much to me like being able to smile again…. so hard that my cheeks hurt. And laugh again… so hard that I can’t breathe. It would break me out of my shell after so many years of isolation. This dental treatment would allow me to create a life that I’m proud of and become the person I’ve always wanted to be. Most importantly, it would allow me to leave the pain of my past behind me for good and experience self-love again. I have always thought that asking for help was a sign of weakness and it wasn’t until I was in recovery that I learned that it’s in fact a sign of strength. So, with all my strength, I am asking for your help. Please help me get my smile back. Life really isn’t worth living when your time is spent hiding from the world. Thank you in advance for your contribution. You have no idea how much it means to me to have your support.

Starting A New Life, Perhaps With A Little Help…..
How does one start all over? The pandemic took its toll in different ways, for different people. It also helped bring about positive changes and renewed outlooks on life. In my case, I used to work as a caregiver, and I really enjoyed helping people in that capacity, for many years. Then the pandemic hit, and my last patient was sent to a nursing home. After that, I was unemployed for nearly a year and a half, giving me some time to re-think the future. As much as I love care-giving, the reality is it’s a very low paying job, as many important jobs in society are, not to mention that I’m 67, and feeling ready for something else. I had worked as an independent contractor mostly, so I didn’t have a 401-K or anything. I started collecting social security at age 65 because I needed it, and it’s under 1k per month. Needless to say, it’s not enough to live on.
And in the last year, to make things more ‘fun’, some veneers broke on my front teeth, leaving me without my dazzling smile! After weighing a lot of options on what I could do to turn my life around financially (the idea of being broke as a ‘senior‘ is pretty scary), I have decided to become a life agent/financial planner, as that is something that can be done at any age, and now, with the whole Covid thing being ongoing, it has become totally normal to do business online via Zoom, etc.
I’m excited about this new path, but like with anything, you don’t always know how long something will take, or the cost involved, in total. I have gone into credit card debt to pay for my agent schooling/license as well as the insurance I must have AS an agent, and now another cost coming up to work with an agency that, after much searching, I have decided to join. My budget is non-existent at this point! My biggest fear right now is me not wanting to smile too much because of my broken teeth, it‘s awkward and uncomfortable….I have learned to smile without showing teeth, pretty weird actually, but I know people take away a first impression when they see you, and if they see my messed up teeth, I wonder how that will go over, as I’m just in that stage right now of getting started.
I don’t know the exact cost of getting this work done, but it would be around 7500 for 3 of my teeth that need to be fixed, after researching it. I live in Los Angeles and nothing here is ‘cheap’. Having my smile restored would be a major boost to my self esteem, and just being able to freely smile again without concern, would be amazing! I would be unbelievably grateful if I were to receive help for this, it would change so much for me, confidence-wise, and moving forward on a new career path! I thank you for considering my dilemma, and I hope that whoever is reading this is doing well in their own life. Many blessings to you!……Olivia paypal.me/reinventingmyself31 
Bad dental work needs repaired
Ill start off by saying i had most of the money two years ago to get my teeth fixed after years with a bad dentist. Old dentist was cheap and took payment. Found a new dentist and got an estimate that said $15,358 dollars. Well also two years ago I found out I was pregnant. Due to my line of work I was laid off because of the job being shut down. So I took the money i had to fix my teeth and used it to pay doctor bills and hospital visits for my baby. He has spina bifida occulta so it took lost of testing and monitoring to make sure he wouldnt need surgery. Well now all of that is out of the way. We are struggling to even pay bills and my teeth are in horrible shape and it hurts to eat some solid foods. I hate to smile and i hate to take pictures with my son due to my smile. Its a shame how much dental work costs now. So if you can please help and I promise to pay it forward.

Front Teeth Smashed – £1523/$2000!!!
Hi there,
My name is Jack Gordon. I am am currently unemployed after working at a Covid Vaccination Centre until last November. Unfortunately any attempt at getting a new job is hindered by the interviewer saying “oh gosh how’d that happen?” referring to my teeth. I can tell it is quite off-putting for the employer but I cannot afford to have my teeth fixed while I have no money and I am finding it ever so difficult to get a job while my teeth are in this state. The manner in which my teeth smashed is of nobody else’s fault other than my own (falling down a concrete staircase), although I am desperate for help from anybody that can help me with the Dental bill.
I can’t find a dentist to help in the meantime as I have no job, so you can see how this vicious cycle is getting out of hand. People are treating me differently due to the way I look it’s having an affect on me mentally. I am living from day to day with what little money I have and I feel like my life has taken a turn for the worse since November.
Not only have my front teeth snapped off, I have teeth at the back where the fillings have come out and are causing a lot of pain. I want to stop having to take pain killers just so I can have a meal and look in the mirror without having a mental breakdown.
Losing my job, losing my girlfriend and this financial predicament I find myself in may not be of concern to other people, but for those who are still reading this my heart goes out to you. Thank you for taking the time out of your day to even read this post.
For me to be able to get back to the way things should be in life, I really really really need help paying for the dental bill. Hopefully good things will fall into place afterwards. If anybody is kind enough to donate then I will be more than happy to give updates to my situation. We can exchange email/numbers (or whatever) It would mean the absolute world to me and I will forever be grateful for this new lease on life.
The dreadful Dental bill for my mangled teeth is a whopping £1523/$2000! I am trying to scrape as much as I can together to bring the total of donations needed down so this amount may change, but I am talking probably a couple hundred at most.
