Second Chance

Meet Our Second Chance Recipient, Megan!

Megan Tells Us About Her Dental Health
As a young child, I was malnourished, abused, and sent to foster care at the age of 5, all of which led me to suffer from anorexia, as it was the only thing I felt I could control in my life — I continued to struggle with anorexia for over 10 years. As a result, my teeth have completely deteriorated and have left me embarrassed to even make a dentist appointment. I have a hard time being in public because of my teeth and the stares and judgment I get from others. This life-changing program is the blessing I have been waiting for, as I believe in paying it forward.

Megan Tells Us Why Restoring Her Smile Is Important
I would love to be able to smile again at everyday things and people, and have others recognize my caring attitude — not just my bad teeth. I want to be able to work in public without being self-conscious about my teeth and give out compliments to others without judgment.

Megan Tells Us Why She Thinks She Is a Good Candidate for the Second Chance Program
I dream of being a bank teller, but working with the public is challenging with bad teeth. Full-arch restoration will open new job opportunities for me, allowing me to pursue my career goals and build my confidence.
