Edie Gibson is a well-respected hygienist and a personal long-time friend. Although we met while educating about implants one of her personal passions has been to discuss addiction and mental health. I\\u2019ve learned over the years that just because someone is quiet and says they\\u2019re fine that it may not always be the case.\\xa0

At some point you\\u2019ll come across someone who needs help. I hope this helps you if you find yourself in similar situations. In the meantime, I\\u2019m sending hugs to you. Life can be hard but there is help available.\\xa0
