Hi! I am hoping to get some help here. My name is Trina. I am a 27 year old unmarried female. I work in the medical field as a certified nurse's aid/patient care technician (depending on where you go) in Texas. I have been getting dental work done little by little here and there as I can since I have no insurance. I have had a root canal, 2 fillings, and 10 teeth extracted (4 wisdom teeth, the teeth next to each wisdom tooth and 2 in front). Since this has been slow going I am unable to keep up with the rate of decay going on and have had a tooth in front break off and several in back chip or break. I can no longer eat hard or crunchy foods. I have had to give up most fruit and fruit juices due to the acidity in them causing alot of pain in my teeth. Chewing is becoming harder each day and sometimes it seems like my teeth just ache. I get turned done for financing at dental clinics and am running out of options and time. I know I need to get my teeth fixed and know I need to do it fast, but I don't know how to get help doing it. I have been trying to do it on my own and it's not working. I am at the point of I don't care if they pull them all and put in dentures. I am not trying to save my teeth, just my health. I will admit it is partially for vanity reasons too. Would you want someone to take out your IV or whatever if their mouth looks like something out of a bad country bumpkin sketch? Anyway, sorry I get a little long winded sometimes, I was wondering if anyone out there can direct me to information on any type of financial aid for people with dental problems, bad credit, and little money? Thank you for any information you can give. I will really appreciate it. I am not sure how this works so I will add my main email addy here. It is tree12501@hotmail.com Thank you for taking the time to read my ramblings!
Hi everyone.
I need to start from the beginning in order for anyone to make any kind of semblence /understanding of my life. It's so very complicated, maybe more or less than any other...
