The only way to get VA dental care is to have a total VA disability rating of %100. I am a combat veteran with a disability rating, and i also work at the VA. Years ago the VA may have had a bad reputation. However After working in local hospitals for the past 10 years, and now being a patient and employee at the VA, i have found that the services that are offered at the VA are on parr or if not superior to those performed in the private sector. If you are a veteran and have any medical issues i highly recomend going to the VA. IT IS A BENEFIT THAT YOU EARNED!!!

Even if you where a Vietnam combat vet, it is almost impossible to get dental from the VA.
