Georgina Rossiter, 24, was self-conscious about her teeth for years but eventually came to accept them as part of her distinctive appearance – until she fell and broke three front teeth, necessitating dental implants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For years, a woman was self-conscious about her teeth, but then she fell and knocked out the front three, leaving her “looking like a zombie.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Georgina Rossiter, 24, has always had slightly wonky teeth, but as an adult, she saw them as an important part of her unique appearance, adopting the nickname ‘bunny’ and using a rabbit avatar online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But then, after a comedy show, the avid gamer slipped and broke three teeth in the front of her mouth, necessitating an expensive surgery to replace them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Georgina has lost her body confidence and now wears a Covid mask indoors to cover her face. She is raising \u00a318,000 to get dental implants that will restore her smile to its former glory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“When I saw my reflection on my phone after I fell, I didn’t recognize myself,” Georgina explained. “My lips were swollen, and I had lost all three of my front teeth.” ‘This is what a zombie looks like – an actual zombie,’ I thought. I’ve always disliked and hid my teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She stated: “We’d only planned what we were going to do the night before, and we’d decided to go to this bar after the gig. I was walking normally when I suddenly tripped.” I’m not sure if I tripped on the pavement or on my new high-top Converse trainers.” But because my hands were in my pockets and I was wearing tight cargo pants, I couldn’t pull them out in time and fell head first.” My teeth took the brunt of the blow when my head smacked on the ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I remember being shocked because there was blood everywhere. I started screaming, ‘My teeth! My teeth!’ ‘I can’t live my life with no teeth,’ I reasoned.” Georgina, who lives in southwest London with her stay-at-home mother, Maria Rossiter, 60, and her makeup artist brother, John Rossiter, 27, was rushed to hospital by ambulance for a check-up and is awaiting a CT scan to ensure she has not fractured her jaw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She was advised to see her dentist, who has now confirmed that dentures will cost \u00a3300 privately, but implants, which are also only available privately, will cost around \u00a318,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I didn’t realize there were emergency dentists, so I waited until after the Bank Holiday to see someone on Monday,” she explained.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
