Portrait of Lerato S.

Bloemfontein, Free State · 34 years old

A frontline worker who cares for everyone but herself

Lerato has worked in home-based care for eleven years. Every spare rand goes towards her daughter's schooling.

Years of deferred treatment have left her with advanced decay across the upper arch, ongoing pain and a speech impediment that has begun to affect her work.

Her nomination came from the family she cares for. Their words: "She has never asked us for anything."

Treatment plan

Restorative fillings, two crowns and periodontal therapy

  • Deep cleaning and periodontal therapy
  • Six restorations across the upper arch
  • Two porcelain crowns
  • Maintenance plan for twelve months

Assessed and delivered by: Partner practice, Bloemfontein. Funds are paid directly to the practice.
