Nearly 600 Aspen Dental Offices to Open their Doors for Annual Day of Service
In recognition of Veterans Day, nearly 600 Aspen Dental locations will open their doors on Saturday, November 6th to provide free care to military veterans across the country. Now in its 7th year, the Day of Service provides much-needed dental care for veterans at no cost to honor their service and break down barriers to care.

“The annual Day of Service is an incredibly rewarding day for dentists and teams throughout the Aspen Dental network,” said Dr. Lauren McDonough, vice president of practice owner development at Aspen Dental Management, Inc. “It’s our small way of giving back to our nation’s veterans, who have given so much to all of us.”

Since 2014, dentists and their teams from Aspen Dental-branded offices across the country have donated more than $22 million in dentistry services to more than 27,500 veterans and people in need though the Healthy Mouth Movement.

Millions of Americans struggle to access dental care every year, and veterans are no exception – in fact, U.S. veterans are ineligible for dental benefits through the Veterans Administration unless they’re 100% disabled, have a service-related mouth injury, or were a prisoner of war. What’s more, during the COVID-19 pandemic, dentists have reported increases in teeth-grinding, cavities and gum disease, largely attributed to pandemic-related stress and changes in health habits.

How Veterans Can Schedule an Appointment

Starting today, veterans can call 1-844-277-3646 (1-844-ASPENHMM) to find a participating Aspen Dental office in their community and schedule an appointment. Advance appointments are required.

During the Day of Service, Aspen Dental dentists and teams focus on treating the most urgent dental needs to help get veterans out of pain, from fillings and extractions to hygiene and basic denture repairs.
