Emergency Dental Care for Career and Confidence

I am reaching out for help due to an unexpected dental emergency that has significantly impacted my life and career. While running, I tripped over an uneven sidewalk, resulting in a chipped front tooth and the loss of another. My dentist has advised that I need a root canal and a bridge to restore my smile. This situation has severely affected my self-image, making me self-conscious and embarrassed, especially in my professional role.

I absolutely love my profession and have dedicated over 15 years to working with children in foster care, specifically focusing on behavioral health and developmental disabilities. My work involves constant interaction with children, families, and courts, and this dental issue has made me hesitant and self-conscious in these interactions. The stress and sadness from this experience have made it even more difficult to do the job I care so deeply about. As a single mother and the sole provider for my children, my profession is my only means of support. The accident happened almost a month ago, and while I have consulted with a dentist, I am waiting to begin treatment due to financial constraints.

Your support will not only help restore my smile but also my confidence and ability to continue providing the best care for the individuals I serve. Thank you for considering helping me through this challenging time.
