I had a piece of my front tooth knocked out (gotta love MCMAP) toward the end of my four years and the Doc's just took the piece of my tooth that fell off and fused it together at Dental. The problem is that when I was seperating, Dental wrote on my sheet that I did not have sufficient time to have my tooth crowned and it reflects so on my DD214. Can I bring my DD214 to the VA and have a free crown put in since my DD214 says I did not receive proper dental coverage before seperating?

Any replies would be helpful because every civilian dentist I talked to said it can get really expensive depending on what surgery I opt for (Crown versus complete tooth replacement surgery).

You need to go to the VA as fast as you can. They can do your dental work but you have to get there real fast there time line is a short time and depends on your location
