ids (integrated dental systems) announces the Smiles for Vets Program giving back to those who have given so much by helping to provide critically needed dental care to those who have been denied treatment. You may be shocked to learn that many of our US veterans are living with pain and suffering from infections caused by the lack of proper dental care. This is the result of so many being unable to receive dental treatment from the Veterans Administration because they do not meet their strict inclusion criteria. Added to this troubling information is the fact that only 8% of all US veterans even get care from the VA. Worse yet, US veterans account for 12% of the homeless population in the US. ids is very excited to sponsor this opportunity to serve our US Veterans by improving the oral health and self‐esteem of the men and women who have served our country,” said ids CEO, Carey Lyons.
Join ids and become part of our Smiles for Vets Program, which helps dentists provide critically needed dental care to US veterans who would otherwise go without treatment. Here’s how it works: ids will provide you with FREE AnyRidge® implants, healing abutments and straight abutments for any implant procedure you perform on a US Veteran.* With its patented and innovative knife thread design, the AnyRidge Implant System delivers more primary stability, the ability to load immediately, and better esthetic outcomes, even in the most challenging applications. With AnyRidge, you’ll be able to provide our vets with a superior implant outcome that they otherwise would not have been able to afford. And that’s sure to bring a big smile to everyone’s face.
