Saving my Baby Girls Smile

Donation protected
just wanted to give an update! I am forever grateful for each and everyone that have donated or given advice! We are still in the process of appealing the use of medical insurance. So many hoops to jump through but will do anything for my Angel girl ❤️.

Hi, I’m Trisha and hoping for some help with my 17 year old daughters smile. Paetyn broke her 2 front teeth in 2019 in 7th grade gym class during PE class and now needs 2 root canals with caps to save them as they have become abscess.

Paetyn is a beautiful girl with the diagnosis of Down Syndrome. While a typical person can sit through these procedures with out anesthesia, Paetyn will require sleep dentistry. Unfortunately dental insurance will not cover and using medical will be denied since a new process was put in place in 2015 that medical coding can not be used for a dental procedure. Our current out of pocket cost is $9500! For a single mother this cost is heart wrenching,

please help me save my babies smile! Paetyn already gets unwanted attention due to physical features from Being special needs and don’t want to draw more attention with missing teeth.
