Hello Friends, Family and Community that know and love Kyle Griffin!

Our wonderful, kind and ever generous Kyle has allowed me the opportunity to put together this fundraiser to help Fund a number of expensive and involved procedures that will result in vital health & a new and improved smile full of NEW healthy & functioning pearly whites.

"Spend your cheddar so Kyle can say Cheese"

These procedures will help Kyle reestablish vital health and longevity for his whole life.

-“The mouth is connected to the rest of the body, and as such—and I’ll paraphrase the Surgeon General’s report—you can’t have good general health unless you have good oral health. The two are intricately linked, and I think the dental profession needs to be very cognizant of that.” -Huw F. Thomas, the 16th dean of Tufts University School of Dental Medicine

If you consider that our bodies are our ‘houses’ and our mouths are the ‘doors’, the connection between oral health and overall health makes complete sense!

The necessary procedures for his full mouth restoration are:

Phase one (First surgery): Price $20,000-ish

-Two sets of NEW teeth (($5000-ish each)

-Multiple extractions (remove broken teeth $$$)

-Multiple bone grafts (to rebuild the density of the jaw bone $$$)

Phase two (Second surgery): Price $30,000 + Incidentals

-8 implants for his NEW teeth to adhere to jaw bone (new teeth attached to newly strong jaw bone! Which exercise the jaw to keep strength)

Throughout the Process: Price $$$$

-6 months of specialty foods, cooking tools and needs while healing and integrating

-Helping to cover bills for the 4+ weeks of work missed

This process is not only long, involved & expensive, it is life changing and requires a huge amount of courage and perseverance from our wonderful Kyle. Get on board! ”It’s a brave rave! Call up your courage to give BIG!” There is nothing more valuable and priceless than our dudes long lived health.

A bit of background:

Kyle, as we all know, is an extremely capable and self-sufficient human.

This skill started development when he began living on his own as a teenager with a family friend. While there was some loose support and a roof over his head, he didn’t have much past that. During said time, learning to care and provide for himself while still being a kid, regular medical and dental care were not a priority nor seemingly accessible. As savvy as a teen can be, understanding hygiene & healthy food choices takes years to develop. Thus, with this lack of support, guidance and maintenance, Kyle’s dental health took a beating.

(Sugar man, it’s delicious and dangerous).

Around the age of eighteen, Kyle knew he needed some medical attention regarding his dental health. The dentist he saw disregarded him and (in short) blamed Kyle for the situation and told him he did not have enough money to fix his teeth. This was a scary and disheartening experience. Kyle was left with the takeaway that the issue was already too far gone to address and he would just need to ‘live with it’.

The truth is, it's never too late to start making positive changes for our health! That is why it is time now that we support our friend to bravely address his condition and take these important steps toward full mouth restoration.

"Ain't No Beef with False Teeth"

There will also be an in person fundraiser (TBA) with Music, Foods, a 'donation' bev station, beautiful ceramics for purchase, schwag for purchase, etc. All the money raised will funnel directly into the "New Chomper" account. Details to come.

Thank you in Advance and if you're able, Reach Deeply Into Those Pockets.

With so much gratitude and love,

Mariah, Spencer & Ashley
