Being able to help those that have served our country is an incredible way to give back to local veterans and make them feel a part of the community once again.
A local American Legion post and the Veterans Service Organization, as well as a few special dentists, veterans across Delmarva truly have something to smile about through a program called Veterans Smile Make-Over, Inc. The Veterans Administration only provides dental care for Veterans who are 100% disabled or have service connected injuries.
In late 2016, the American Legion Post 64 was approached by a local dentist regarding possible services for needy veterans. A grassroots organization was formed. Dental needs for our veterans are substantial.
In early 2017, a board of directors was established and Veterans Smile Make-Over, Inc. became a reality.
The following services are provided:
- dental health
- cleanings
- fillings
- extractions
- dentures
- assessments of needs and eligibility
- referrals for other services
