Aspen Dental will host its Day of Service on June 11, 8am-1pm, providing FREE dental care to veterans.

Aspen Dental created the Healthy Mouth Movement to help ensure our veterans get the care they need. Since 2014, the Healthy Mouth Movement has provided over $23 million in donated dentistry to more than 30,000 patients in need.

Interested veterans need an appointment to receive care and should call 1-844-AspenHMM (1-844-277-3646) to find a participating practice in their community and schedule an appointment in advance – space is limited!

Veterans oral health is chronically under-served. Preventive dental care can significantly impact a veteran’s overall health and quality of life, including job security. The VFW is collaborating with CareQuest Institute for Oral Health on a survey to gain an understanding of the barriers and challenges veterans face concerning their dental care. This survey can be completed by all veterans and service members. You do not need to be enrolled in VA or TRICARE Health Programs.

Participation in this survey is completely voluntary. You will not be asked to provide any identifying information and your responses will remain anonymous. No funding sources are financially supporting this work. By participating in this survey, you are contributing to research that will support access to oral health care for veterans.  The survey should take about 10 minutes to complete.

You have the option to enter your contact information in a raffle for a chance to win a $50 gift card. At the end of the survey, you can choose to enter your information in the raffle, through a separate link. Your information will not be associated with your responses in any way.

If you have any questions, you can reach the Principal Investigator at [email protected].

Take the survey.
