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.

All needs to be covered
Another crime committed by the VA. <><
yeah found that out
but our progressive government does a super job of taking care of their worthless, lazy, nanny state losers
Or optical
My Dad serviced 23 years and started with dental and optical care. Then his benefits were taken away in 1984 after he retired. Whatever happened to a grandfather clause? All military service people should have total medical benefits. Actors, actresses, football players, basketball players make millions and this is ridiculous!! They say they support our service people well use they’re “powerful” voices to shout for what’s right.
Yes they give concerts and fund raisers but help us fight for it legislatively!!
Wake up American help those who fight our fights. Defend us daily let’s fight for them!!!
Obama gave the money we had for the care of our veterans to the illegal aliens he brought into this country who have not done one thing to deserve any kind of benifits, they are here illegally. Send all of them back to where they came from and if they refuse to go, shoot them.
Waiting on increase approved 10/13 to 100%. Amazing how they hate paying retroactive….
