God Bless

Jamie,
\nI feel so sorry for what has happened to you, and yes, there is help available.<\/p>\n

I am in Arizona, which is a long way from where you live, and I don’t practice anymore, but there are excellent cosmetic dentists all over the country who are willing to do this type of charity work, and they are specifically set up to help women who are victims of domestic violence, to help them get their smiles back.<\/p>\n

Visit the website of the Give Back a Smile Foundation. They are run by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry. See https:\/\/www.aacd.com\/index.php?module=cms&page=610<\/a>.<\/p>\n
