Hi everyone, I had a dental procedure done a long time ago and it left me with uneven lips. I tried to get help but was told was no way to rebuild the bone loss on the right side of my face. So, I have be living with my condition. I have lived with this condition, sometimes feeling ashamed. But with the help of God, I have managed. I have continued to rely on God and live my life one day at a time.

HI Carlat28,

Its great to be able to welcome you! good to hear from you.

Do you know what, I can't think of a better way to live life frankly. one day at a time.

We spend so much of our lives running from working, to other issues, and from crisis, to life in general, its very easy to forget that as people, we do need to stop and smell the roses from time to time.

Please don't ever feel ashamed. I know its not an easy ask, but it is your heart and soul that really matters.

Keep in touch, let us know how your doing or if we can ever help.
