Full Dental Implants and Surgery
Donation protected
If you are taking the time to read this, I would like to start by saying "thank you". I have created this page to help someone who is very near and dear to my heart, my cousin Kaleb. We have faced a great deal of adversities in our lives, and we've always been by one another's side. For me, this is another example of my support. My cousin is in desperate need of full dental implants. He is five years younger than me, with the world at his fingertips, but he spends most of the time indoors, away from family and friends because he is so self-conscious about his teeth and smile. He used to work with/coach students with disabilities in the art of Jiu-Jitsu, but he has stepped away from that, too, due to lack of self-confidence. We all know how important our smiles are, what an impact they can have on others, and while I'd like to be able to say we live in a world where we are not judged for our outward appearance, it's just not true. I want him to be able to walk outside and not wonder what people are thinking of him. I want him to smile confidently, to spend time with family and friends, and experience life to the fullest. He has had dentures in the past, but they haven't fit correctly and caused him a lot of discomfort. If I could afford to pay for the dental surgery and implants myself, I would in a heartbeat, but unfortunately the cost is tremendous. It is also not covered by my cousin's insurance. I know it's a big ask, but I'm shooting for the stars. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
