AUGUSTA — The Maine Bureau of Veterans’ Services and 22 participating clinics are providing dental hygiene services to veterans who can’t afford preventive dental care up until April 29.
The Maine Veterans’ Dental Network, which is overseen by MBVS, recently received a $100,000 grant from Northeast Delta Dental to serve veterans who do not otherwise have dental coverage or cannot afford dental care.
The program ends April 29. To receive dental hygiene services, veterans must provide a copy of their DD-214 (discharge papers) to the clinic and grant permission to forward the document to MBVS for inclusion in its database. If the veteran does not have a copy of their DD-214, MBVS can assist them in acquiring one by submitting the request form found at maine.gov/veterans/forms on the MBVS website.
