In light of the recent scandals concerning the VA’s mishandling of our veterans, another unfortunate secret emerged: most of America’s veterans receive zero dental benefits or oral care from the VA.
Dr. Charles Zahedi, the founder and Clinical Director of the not-for-profit organization, Dentists for Veterans, is the very first dentist in United States to have started a pilot program to conduct a nationwide study and initiative to precisely assess the feasibility and advisability of furnishing dental care to veterans under section 1705 of title 38, United States Code, who are not eligible for dental services and treatment.
By carrying out this pilot program, Dentists for Veterans will enable the Veterans Administration to better specify performance standards and metrics and processes for ensuring compliance with the hopes that these will one day be funded by federally-directed dental treatment programs. In addition, by executing this program, Dentists for Veterans will be able to rapidly identify those veterans who are completely orally disabled.
Until that funding is secured, Dentists for Veterans is rallying patriotic Americans to donate a minimum of $25 to build and furnish mobile dental facilities that will drive around America and treat veterans who lack the funds and means to get proper dental care.

You…being incorrect…on dental care…did I stutter? People do not only need dental care because they don’t brush…with that being said, why do you bother with the yearly visit if all you need to do is brush? Actually, you don’t need to reply…your level of ignorance gives me a headache and frankly, I am not interested in what ever response you intend to vomit up. If I was a guesser, I’d say you are more in line with give aways to the 49 million dead beats collecting welfare than to our military….but again, I don’t really care what you have to say…..go brush your teeth and say yourself $75 this year…
Down Mexico, dental work is only about 10% of what it costs in the US..Millions of our citizens go down there .
