Help Alex End Jaw Pain with Safe Surgery

Donation protected
Hello! My name is Alex and I’ve lost many teeth over the years due to the medications that kept me alive as a very sick child. My molars formed poorly and I lost most of them in my 20’s causing my jawbone to collapse into itself. I found a Dental Surgeon who put two implants in my lower jaw in exchange for social media work. Little did I know he was practicing without proper training and placed them poorly and improperly. Later that week in that same chair, two people died while placing similar implants with him. Removal of what he placed is risky when the screws are directly against the nerve and could result in permanent facial paralysis. I’m in pain constantly that radiates down my neck and tongue and have been for years. I've saved as much as I can but still fall short on the cost of this surgery which is why I am asking for help. I found someone who specializes in this type of high risk removal but his expertise does cost a bit. I’m hoping to raise enough to be able to afford this surgeon that can remove them without causing more damage than has already been done. Thank you for considering helping me in this situation. I spent my entire savings on the upper implants because eating had become nearly impossible. I also took a financial hit having to move abruptly a months ago due to a stalker who broke into my home. I’m asking only for what will get me out of pain (The first surgery) and will continue to work hard and save up to eventually have jaw surgery to rebuild my bone and fix those issues down the line. Thank you so much for everything!

Update : Thank you so much for the donations so far! I have enough for the CT scan needed prior to surgery and have that booked for Nov 6th. When I get to the amount to schedule surgery i'll update everyone as well :)
