Hello! I don’t like doing this sort of thing, and it’s not ideal, but my partner specifically needs help.
They cannot afford medical bills, but they have dental problems that occurred due to lack of ability to get any sort of insurance to be able to go to a dentist in the first place. Despite their best efforts, they’re looking at tooth decay and cavities, and not just one tooth (while there is one that is the worst), but many in the future if not treated now.
This is all based on research, as we are unsure what will be needed and prices for such things without a checkup, but the prices we’re looking at are as follows:
Most common checkups without insurance are around $300
Cavity filling ranges from $50 - $450 per tooth from what I’m seeing.
Tooth extractions, depending on use of anesthesia and whatnot, range from $75 - $650 per tooth.
Root canals range from $300 - around $2,000 per tooth.
Crowns, looking at the cheapest, are anywhere form $330 - $1,500 per tooth.
We may very well be looking at multiple of any of these
So, to give massive wiggle room for anything that may go wrong, I would like to set our goal in the $20,000 range.
That’s a really scary number, I know, but we don’t know yet for sure how much everything will be, and exactly how many teeth will need what. Dental with insurance is scary, so this is terrifying.
We would need to be able to even see a dentist in the first place, so if we could get $300 - $400 to be able to get an estimate that would help so very much.
Due to mental illness I’m struggling with ruining my hours and chances with jobs, I cannot help much on my own.
They cannot afford anything, working a minimum wage job and paying most of that to rent and food.
We would appreciate if this were to be reblogged, and if you can donate anything, every little bit will help. And if, per chance, you would want something in return for donating - I do art commissions (link from my art blog). I’m willing to negotiate cheaper, but still reasonable prices for this.
If you would like to donate:
Paypal Donation pool: https://paypal.me/pools/c/8iFfqH9KWv
or, if you would prefer to donate to either of us individually:
My partner’s paypal: https://www.paypal.me/vmum
My partner’s ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/vvmumv
My paypal: https://www.paypal.me/voidserif
My cashapp: $voidserif
Whether you donate to me or them, it will be going straight to them - my accounts are mainly going to be for if you would prefer a commission, or if cashapp would work better for you, because they do not have a cashapp.
tl;dr My partner has no insurance for tooth issues, and we need to do something about this sooner rather than later before it gets really bad. Neither of us can afford this on our own, so we need all the help we can get.
Reblogs are very appreciated
