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.

But the illegals will get the dental care with their welfare.
All Vets should get Medicaid Insurance. This world is upside down.
ENOUGH! I’m sick of hearing about it. There is no draft…these folks volunteered just like the rest of us! I pay for my own insurance, work the most dangerous job in America, and am a veteran. Stop telling me these folks need care! Have you seen the average PTSD disability payment recipient lately? They are usually fat, lazy, and very entitled. The soldiers and sailors that returned from 4 years in the pacific theater of WWII saw more action in one week than the average veteran does in a year and yet they came home, got jobs, had families, and moved on. Try doing what they did!!
buttaking care of million’s of mexican’s, Muslim’s, lazy ass black’s and whites and more but to hell with we Veteran’s….
Brian…U need 2 learn sum respect…they deserve it all +…U r a moron…
It should be all free to them. The Va’s unamerican bastards.
They should get any and all health care they need. Period.
We NEED to take care of our people!!!
WHY NOT? Our veterans deserve the best! You give the world to these illegal immigrants but, shaft the men and women who fought to preserve our rights and liberties. Get your priorities straight Washington DC.
Why Not ? Congress should give up some of their money for the vets …
