“19 years after an accident involving a hammock, my dentist gave me a smile.”

“There’s still a lot of work that needs to be done, but I am grateful to get started on the process of fixing my teeth.”

“I got braces at age 29. After 2 long years, I got them off. If you’re thinking about it, it’s worth every penny and every minute.”

“Quite literally gave me my smile back.”

«First time I felt like really smiling since my car accident!»

«Yesterday my husband got his dentures after having no teeth for 5 months!»

“After 9 months of waiting, I got my permanent dentures today. Haven’t smiled this hard in almost a decade, and it feels amazing.”

“For the first time in over 6 years, I have a full set of working teeth and a smile I don’t have to hide. I can bite things now! And chew them! The first carrot was amazing.”

«Still can’t smile like normal and feel like a shark with human teeth but it’s still an improvement over the before!»

“I had braces and a double-jaw surgery to fix my teeth/skeletal issues.”

“Always had crappy small teeth, and although I love to laugh and smile, I’ve always been embarrassed. After extensive crown work, I can now smile confidently.”

“For the first time in my life, I have a full mouth of teeth. I am ecstatic.”

“I haven’t smiled in 10 years. Truly life-changing.”

«Got my permanent set today!»

“Been lying awake in bed for months dreading the day. I was worried about nothing, my experience was excellent. It feels good to smile again.”

“My single mother couldn’t afford braces for us growing up. So when I got a job, I saved and paid for them myself. Most fulfilling decision I’ve ever made.”

«From hot mess to not!»

«After years with missing teeth, I finally got my smile fixed today!»

«For the first time in 3 years, I can smile again, and mean it. Swollen to oblivion, but it was worth it!»
