Hello,

It is not easy to write this application, but I have decided to give it a go, as it is very difficult to manage such a sum on my own.

I have suffered from severe periodontitis since childhood. Because of this condition, my teeth have become increasingly weak, crumbling and breaking even when eating ordinary food. The situation has only got worse over the years, until eventually I had no choice but to have my teeth removed.

I currently wear a removable denture. Although it allows me to function at least minimally in daily life, at a young age this is very difficult both physically and emotionally. It’s hard to smile freely, socialise with people, have my photo taken or simply feel like myself.

My biggest dream is to have a neat, healthy smile again and to live a normal life without constant discomfort and feelings of shame. This requires full dental treatment and dentures/implants, which cost around €10,000–15,000.

Unfortunately, I am currently unable to raise such a sum on my own, so I am turning to the public for help. Even the smallest contribution brings me closer to being able to smile normally again and live a full life.

Thank you to everyone who contributes, shares, or simply offers a kind word. It means the world to me.
