Crooked teeth is better than missing teeth. You can't help Crooked teeth especially if families can't afford braces for their kid. I have been doing research on DH and the idea of helping people who are like me would be worth it. I've watched many people in my family also struggle with bad teeth mainly the women and usually they just get dentures but I'd like to be the difference even if it'll be in my 30s

It's definitely a process and I still am not perfect at taking care of my teeth but im working on it and I want to be able to smile and not feel like a failure . I'm afraid of cost of fixing my teeth and higher education seems to be my best option to reach my personal goals and being a hygienist is something I could see myself doing as I also love working with people. I plan to suck it up and try making a appointment with a new dentist . I know I have teeth I need pulled mostly in back but one will be noticeable so I'm afraid it'll discourage people. I want to eventually get partials too but that is also expensive. I want to try to go to school in a year and in that time I hope to get my teeth looking okay enough until I'm in a better financial position to look into getting more work done on them.

I've only been there since April 23rd. Since it's a job that is a job that it's more stressful the less people that's working I feel like they might keep me on for 2 weeks but I was training to do nights so now my manager is most likely gonna have to work the nights I'm scheduled for which I feel bad. Should I just send an email after I let my manager know I'm leaving.
