Veteran Dental Resource- 2020
https://www.newmouth.com/oral-health/effects/military/
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, “about 30% of U.S. military veterans used some form of tobacco product during 2010-2015. Veterans are more likely to develop health conditions, certain cancers, and mental illnesses than non-veterans. These conditions can also lead to poor oral health problems.
NewMouth was created to keep the public, including veterans, educated about current dental care practices, oral health basics, and how to find the best treatment possible. Our team of medical writers and dentists provide the most up-to-date dental information in every aspect of dentistry. Our goal is to be a one-stop-shop for all of your dental and oral health needs!
