I am a 31 year old female who has been battling graves’ disease for seven years. It has come with lot of issues such as hair loss and leg rash and most importantly brittle teeth.
I have lost six teeth so far and have to have a further four removed. Eating at this point is painful to say the least. I live on purified and soft foods. I refuse to even smile because I’m so ashamed of the state of my mouth.
Medical aid will not cover dentures or implants and I have lost what little self-confidence I had to begin with because of my teeth. I know that they are just teeth, but I am devastated to be looking this way at such a young age.
I financially cannot afford the further extractions required as most of them need to be cut out surgically and I definitely canot afford to replace them.
I would greatly appreciate any contributions to help put a smile back onto my face.
Thank you in advance.
