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.

I don’t get free dental care. My roommate pushed paper here in the USA for four years, no combat. Why should he get free anything. And it was a good paying job
The Army took my teeth, but, the V.A. won’t replace them.
This is BS. If they were illegal they could get anything.
This is wrong.
Obama ain’t running things this go ’round. The money going to illegal aliens should be transferred to our vets! And welfare and medical care going to the illegals should to used to support our vets. Congress just do it!
OUTRAGES!!!
