After losing her 18-year-old brother, 29-year-old Brittany Negler from Philadelphia spiraled into grief and addiction. Drugs became her escape—but they took a heavy toll, especially on her teeth. As her health declined, she lost most of her teeth and withdrew from the world, ashamed and in pain.

When she finally sought help, a dentist told her the remaining teeth couldn’t be saved. They were all removed, leaving her underweight, unable to eat properly, and emotionally broken.

Just when hope seemed lost, Brittany connected with Dr. Kenny Wilstead, a Texas cosmetic dentist. Moved by her story, he offered her a full $38,000 smile makeover—for free.

The moment she saw her new smile, Brittany broke down in tears. It wasn’t just about looks—it was a turning point. With her smile restored, she regained her confidence, began eating again, and found new purpose.

Today, she shares her story to inspire others battling addiction and shame, proving that healing is possible—and sometimes, it starts with a smile.
