Eastern Oklahoma VA Health Care System

Our Dental Program provides multi-specialty care to Veterans who meet eligibility requirements. 

We have locations at the Jack C. Montgomery VA Medical Center in Muskogee and at the Tulsa VA Dental Clinic, located at 5110 South Yale, Suite 200.

Dental services provided comprehensive Dental Treatment to Eligible Veterans to include:

• General Dentistry
• Endodontics (Limited)
• Prosthodontics
• Oral Surgery (Limited)
• Dental Hygiene
• Periodontics (Limited)

The primary mission of the Dental Program is to provide comprehensive, appropriate and effective oral Health Care, essential to veterans' medical needs and as defined by statute, in an atmosphere that promotes continuous improvement in the quality of that care. The Dental Program strives to maximize the productivity with which these services are provided in order to provide the broadest scope of care to the maximum number of veterans, while complying with or exceeding external regulatory requirements, relevant professional standards, and patient expectations.

Diagnostic, consultative, and emergency services are available to inpatients, to long-term care, nursing home and domiciliary residents. Following clinical assessment, comprehensive dental care is provided to outpatients, consistent with VA regulations delineating both eligibility and the range of services available by eligibility classification. Comprehensive services are also rendered for nursing home, long-term care and domiciliary residents.

Veterans Dental Benefits and Eligibility

Veterans can call 888-397-8387, option 4 to determine their eligibility for Dental Care. If they are eligible, they can then contact the Dental Clinic for an appointment.  

VA offers comprehensive dental care benefits to certain qualifying Veterans. To better understand if you are eligible for VA dental care, visit What VA dental care benefits do I qualify for? If eligible, you can apply online using the 10-10ez, the fastest and easiest way to apply for VA health care benefits. If not eligible, Veterans enrolled in VA health care can purchase dental insurance at a reduced cost through the VA Dental Insurance Program (VADIP). See also the "Not Eligible?" section below for more information.

If you are a Veteran who has recently served (e.g. OEF/OIF/OND), you may be entitled to a one-time course of free dental care, but you must apply for dental care within 180 days of your discharge (under conditions other than dishonorable) from a period of active duty of 90 days or more.
