Hello my name is Kayla Fritz Iam 24 years old a mother to a 7 year old boy I have a great girlfriend who I've been with for 5 years and severe dental problems. I have been suffering from dental pain and tooth loss since I got pregnant with my son at age 16 it has progressivly gotten worse over the years and is now so severe that I can hardly eat I cannot hold a job and I have no friends because of the embarresment my teeth cause me. My girlfriend works and has supported me and my son for 3 years now but because of the strain of living off a $300 dollar a week income we are unable to even put away money to save for dental care. I live a good life and I am a good person but I am in horrible physical and emotional pain when I am forced to go to the emergency room because of the severity the tooth abcesses I get I am referred to by the doctors as a crackhead..they refuse to give me anything even for my pain because they judge me by my appereance. I was hospitalized a year ago because of the severity of the infection in my teeth and they told me when I was admitted that if I hadnt got there when I did I probably wouldnt have made it. Other girls my age are bothered by thier ba size or cellulite and have elective procedures to correct thier flaws ..my dental condition is like I said not only extremly painful..but painfully embarrassing. So please if there is anyone out there that can help..please help me smile agian.
