hi my name is kristan, i am 22 years old and i am need of some kind of dental assistance.... in Nov. 2007 i went to the dentist to have my wisdom teeth removed and they discovered that i still had baby teeth that had never came out.... so on valetines day 2008 they cut and pulled out all together 8 of my teeth.... it was the most painful ordeal i have ever been the thro... for months i couldnt eat barely talk, awful experince..... then in March 08 i turned 21 and lost my coverage.... when this all began they told me my adult teeth may come in on their own but because of my age it wasnt likely and they havent moved... so i am miss two teeth up front on top and one tooth in front on bottom, i am going to need braces, plus buttons put on my adult teeth so they can be pulled in, they estimated the cost around $4000.... i am a mother of the most amzaing toddler, have a good man, and i am about to graduate from our community college..... but i wake up every morning with a frown not a smile because i hate smiling with my teeth missing.... i am just beginning my life missing teeth should be the least of my worries, but they are one of my main ones...... after i graduate i will have to go to interviews and find a job.... but even with my degree how many employers are going to take me serious with my teeth missing? i have lost so much confidence in myself since this happened i feel like they cut me up and left me out to dry with hardly any rope.... so please if anyone has any information about any dental assistance let me know......... thank you
