Trying to make my son smile his beautiful smile with confidence

Manawatu / Whanganui

My son needs work on his jaw and teeth. He is 12 and has very low confidence, maybe a result of his teeth. His identical twin brother has straight teeth.

We have had a quote from an orthodontist and he will need Twin Blocks for several months to bring his bottom jaw forward (he has a severe overbite). At the same time, he will have 6 top braces to begin to straighten his teeth (he also has severe overjet).

After several months, he will then have a full set of braces. Total length of treatment is expected to be 24 months.

We are having to swallow our pride and borrow money to do this.. so any money raised from this page will instantly be used to pay that back.

Thankyou in advance for any funds donated.
