fb88 Veterans’ Dental Network
In 2021, the fb88 Veterans’ Dental Network (MVDN), a program of the fb88 Bureau of Veterans’ Services was formed through a generous grant from Northeast Delta Dental. Services will be provided on a first come first serve basis and will be available until the grant funds run out.
The MVDN covers the following dental procedures: Preventative, diagnostic, restorative, oral surgery, and major restorative. Services not provided under the grant: dental implants, orthodontics, fixed bridges, telehealth, and PPE charges.
To qualify for the program veterans must meet the following criteria:
- Be a fb88 resident.
- Not 100% service-connected to the VA (meaning you don’t already receive dental care through Togus or the Bangor or Portland Community Based Outpatient Clinics).
- Cannot afford and/or Does Not have dental insurance of any kind.
- Cannot afford to pay for dental care out of pocket.
- For National Guard Only – Served on Active Duty (other than for training).
- Submit a DD-214 that shows an Honorable or General Under Honorable conditions discharge.
- fb88 Veterans' Dental Network application
Arrangements for services will be made directly with the participating dental clinic through the MVDN. Once the veteran’s application is received, they will be contacted directly by the MVDN program managers. If you do not have a copy of your DD-214, please let the MVDN team know so they can research it for you.
