Robyn's New Smile!

Spende geschützt




I love to laugh and smile and talk BUT for YEARS I have been ASHAMED of my teeth! Sadly, bad teeth run in my family. Over the years I have had a lot of dental work done. Cavities filled, baby teeth pulled, full braces, countless root canals, surgical extractions, and even two bridges. Even with all of that work my teeth are still bad. They break and crumble fairly often, cavities fall out, the root canals have to be redone. It just goes on and on. I have asked dentists in the past about dentures and they always said "you're too young" but FINALLY the dentist and oral surgeon agree that my teeth are all failing so badly and that I am old enough (I'm still only 45) that dentures are the right answer for me! Hip hip hooray! I'm sad that I have bad teeth, but happy that I can finally get them taken care of and finally have a beautiful smile that I am not ashamed of!

The most recent dental emergency that started all of this was a huge abcess caused by a newly broken tooth. I had to have two surgical extractions to take care of this right away. Talking with the oral surgeon after that he said go see the dentist. I went and had that consultation and the dentures will be $5678. Today I just had the consultation with the oral surgeon for all the extractions - the remaining teeth have to be surgically removed because they just break and fall apart just trying to pull them out simply. That cost is $5466. We have dental insurance, but there is a maximum amount of coverage - it will take off eaving us with a total of $9821 out of pocket. This is a lot of money for us right now. Hubby and I both work but his pay had been cut dramatically the past year and he is now gotten a raise, but we have spent a lot of our savings just keeping up. I am self-employed so my pay is a bit more random. That is why I am here asking for help funding my new smile. 

Hubby and I are not afraid of hard work and wish we could afford this all on our own, but we honestly need help with it. During the process of me getting the surgery to remove teeth and the process of getting the dentures made I will have several down days which will impact my ability to work a bit also and so that lowers our income a bit again. 

Over the years I have always donated what I can to others on GoFundMe and other similiar sites. I donate to charity with both money and time. I am happy to help my family, friends and neighbors whenever I can. We all need help from time to time and right now this is my time that I have to ask for some help. Any amount you can add to my fund will help me have a healthy mouth, end my years of pain and torture with my natural teeth, and will allow me to pass out free smiles to so many more people every single day!

Thank you so much for taking the time to read my story and for any funds you can add AND for sharing my story with others if you can.

Love,
Robyn
