I'm trying to raise the rest of the money to get dental implants. I've had bad teeth for most of my life.  My adult teeth came in with no enamel, wouldn't hold fillings, and began crumbling during my first pregnancy. I've had an upper partial since I was 22, but the rest of my teeth have severely degraded over time. My self-esteem has never been good because of it and I've been bullied for my teeth since I was a child.

I recently obtained excellent insurance that will pay for some of the procedure but that leaves $3500 out of pocket per arch. That's a total of $7000. I've saved up enough for one arch, but still need to cover the other. The additional $500 will help allow me to take a full week off of work to recover. I'm estimated to have the procedure in July 2026. Thanks for helping me not be afraid to smile for the first time in my life.
