Hi there. My name is Tenrou, and I need help affording to get my 3+ year old braces removed.

At the end of August 2023, I had to abruptly move states before my braces could be taken off. Since I moved over 10 hours away (Missouri to Pennsylvania), there was no way for me to continue seeing my orthodontist. Overtime, my braces have started to loosen, fall apart, and cause me pain - which has also lead me to stop brushing my teeth in fear of damaging them more. It's progressively gotten worse and both my braces and dental health are now at a point where I desperately need them taken care of.

Unfortunately, this is something I can't afford myself... I've tried contacting dozens of orthodontists, but every single one has either told me they can't help with my situation due to them being put on out-of-state or that my insurance won't cover the $1000+ cost it would be to remove them (despite being on Medicaid). I don't have enough financial support to help with this either, so this is my only option.

It would mean the world to me if you could help me get them removed, so I can stop being in pain and properly take care of my teeth again. If you can't afford to donate, please share this around wherever you can. Thank you <3
