Dentist Gives Woman Who Had Teeth Removed Her Smile Back

A woman whose teeth were all pulled is able to smile again after getting a full set of dental implants at the Smile Again Dental clinic in Garland, Texas, on January 22.
In heart-rending video by Dr Kenny Wilstead, his patient Brittany Negler describes how her dental, general and mental health started to decline when her brother died of cancer at 18.
“I went into a dark place, I’m not gonna lie. I started hanging out with the bad kids, I started doing drugs to numb the feeling,” Negler says.
During this time, Negler says she had all her teeth removed, but expresses doubt as to whether this was a necessary procedure. Looking at her dental report in the video, Wilstead says he doesn’t see “anything here about why they would need to pull all your teeth.”
“I can’t eat, I can’t gain weight. I was so close to getting a feeding tube. I don’t leave the house anymore,” Negler says.
After her procedure, a transformed Negler cries tears of joy and embraces Winstead. “At the Smile Again Foundation, we help those the world has forgotten by giving them back their smiles. And most often, their lives,” Winstead told Storyful.

[@jordanrodriguez6412]

Yup. I hate to admit this but I struggled my entire youth with severe anxiety and developed ptsd from having not great teeth. For me it wasn't trying to look good or better. But you can see people staring at your teeth while you talk. You know how hard it is for a young 15 yr old boy to accept the fact that a girl likes him from afar. Walks up to him. And literally changes her whole entire vibe. When she sees you smile or act shy because you dont want to smile. Or even worse she starts going out with your best friend.. and the only differen he got is a nice smile? It's devastating. Really broke my confidence. Thats just one example same thing thing job interviews or just every social interactions. Took me till I was 21 until I could save up money and afford those ridiculous godam prices for fake veneers. And this was back in 2011. Damn shame

There was no proper dental care free m where I lived. I was so aware of my dentures - I lost my confidence. My life was messed up. Up to this day I get tooth aches in my dreams. Kudos to that amazing dentist who helped her. I wish her all the best in life. God bless!

That dentist deserves an award. This is the product of someone that trained hard and excelled highly and is damn proud in their profession. I knew she was in total distress throughout the entire procedure, but the dentist in his mind was like “wait until I’m done you’ll never stop smiling” and he was correct!! - dude changed her life….Not to mention, the patient is very attractive ❤️😁 bravo sir…BRAVO 👏🏾

you dont know what happened at the other dentist. meth can ruin ALL your teeth and sometimes extracting them makes the most sense. When you make an "immediate" denture to replace all her teeth it can take well over a year to make the final set (that look exactly yhte same as the final ones here for they are the same (yet the "all on 4s are screwed into those implants). there is a good chance she never had her final set made.

[@BoopSnoot]

The dentist did nothing wrong. Long term meth addicts can have tooth decay so severe that leaving them in can cause massive uncontrollable infection. If you want to blame anyone, don't blame the dentist, blame our judicial system that is soft on crime and lets drug dealers and users loose with not even a slap on the wrist. This would have never happened in Singapore where they have mandatory death penalty for drug dealers, as when she was in a dark place she wouldn't have drugs pushed on her as it just doesn't even exist in circulation. Demand your lawmakers stop enabling drug users, and start implementing tough love policies.

@@emmanuelwolf6568 Its not a hypothetical, its been in practice for over 60 years. Crime and drug use increase with population density as a rule of thumb, and yet Singapore despite being the most population dense country in the world is also the lowest crime rate country in the world, with essentially non-existent drug use where drug offenses are usually years apart. Despite starting off as a small fishing village, these policies have helped produce a per capita GDP 466% higher than the world average of $65,233 which is very high for South East Asia.

@@emmanuelwolf6568 sarcasm is the tool of the insecure. if you want another example of how destructive narcotics can be left unchecked, again don't ask "what if" and look at history.

Drugs rot a society from the inside out, and you've made it clear you're part of the problem and one of the drug enablers that is more likely to give a drug addict on the side of the road $10 than to call the police and have them arrested so that they can be cleaned, thinking you're doing the right thing while killing someone and being no different than if you had poisoned them yourself.
