Hello, I would love the world to see the real me. I am fun, confident, generous, love to cook and I love to tell jokes. For my entire life I have held my hands over my mouth, when talking, laughing and definetly when crying. I truely wish I could just laugh out loud and not fear the stares of how terrible my teeth really look. You see Ive had diabetes since I was a small child, I had a kidney transplant and many other health problems. Overcoming and still surviving these traumas in my life has not nearly been as difficult as hiding my smile from day to day. I believe to this day, that my smile in spite of my fun and jovial personality and my qualifications has cost me employment and some of life's securities. Sometimes people interpret you as unfriendly or unclean because your smile is crooked, teeth broken, discolored and just plain unsightly.  I'm a very happy person with a really bad smile. I would love to speak about my past and show off the new me. Most dentist don't even want to bother (I've been told to just get dentures) Others, explain the expenses. And I know I could never afford that type of cost. (quotes from 10K +) The medications I take with help from Medicare cost over $2,700 per month. Perhaps one day I can give my Doc's who saved me a well deserved smile. and gracious humble thank you. Is there a dentist anywhere, who truely understands and could help me.  "Thanks for listening....smiling on the inside." Sharon in Lorain, Ohio.
