“Share a Smile with a Vet” will help meet the dental needs of area veterans.

San Antonio, Texas (PRWEB) July 09, 2013

Concorde Career College, Inc., a private post-secondary educational institution that trains healthcare professionals, is pleased to announce its “Share a Smile with a Vet” program at its San Antonio campus. While dental benefits are provided by the Department of Veterans Affairs, in many instances veterans are not eligible for dental care through the VA. “Share a Smile with a Vet” addresses the overwhelming need for uninsured veterans to receive access to affordable dental care.

The pilot program for “Share a Smile with a Vet” was started by the Concorde Dental Hygiene program in Kansas City to meet the dental needs of area veterans and is now extending into San Antonio to address similar needs. The program allows Concorde’s Dental Hygiene students to provide dental care for these individuals and their immediate family members until they can obtain employment and receive dental care through their employer.

The program provides veterans with many free dental services for a year, along with the same services for immediate family members at just $5.00 per service.

Dental services include:


·     Comprehensive exam by a dentist
·     Dental cleanings
·     X-rays
·     Periodontal cleaning (deep cleanings)
·     Sports guards
·     Sealants
·     Fluoride treatments

All work will be performed by Dental Hygiene students under the close supervision of a dentist and the faculty at the San Antonio campus located at:
4803 NW Loop 410
San Antonio, TX 78229
210.428.2099
