Army Preventive Dentistry Program Aims at Dependents Coverage
The Army previews a Preventive Dentistry Program offering dental care to wives and children of active duty personnel with a deductible. Civilians could be treated by any dentist, with a portion of the bill paid by the recipient and the rest by the government. Retirees and their dependents are initially excluded. A survey on needs is underway and planned to finish in early 1968. Dependents of active duty personnel face limited treatment to emergency cases at Seneca Army Depot due to facility and staff limits. A full dental exam is not denied, and periodic exams are urged. Fluoride treatment and a dental care kit are provided, and appointments can be made by phone or in person.
