Many adults tend to put their oral health on the back burner by not going to the dentist for routine dental maintenance, like cleanings or annual check-ups. Millions of Americans also live in places where there is little or no access to care. Other barriers get in the way too - like cost, lack of insurance, and fear.

This is especially challenging for the majority of U.S. veterans as they are not eligible for dental benefits through the Veterans Administration unless they are 100% disabled, have a service-related mouth injury, or were a prisoner of war. 

Helping patients, like our friend Patriotic Kenny, is the reason our teams come to work each day. Veterans, like Kenny, have given so much for our nation, and we are so grateful that we can give back to them through this movement. We are honored and excited to be a part of your smile journey, Kenny. Thank you so much for letting us take care of your smile and you!
