The San Joaquin Dental Society Foundation is proud to introduce Veterans Stand Down, a new community service event dedicated to providing free dental care to veterans in the San Joaquin area. 

Volunteer dental professionals will provide no-cost dental services to eligible veterans, including exams, cleanings, fillings, extractions, root canals, and additional care as available.

This event is designed to help reduce barriers to oral health care for veterans while showing appreciation for their service and sacrifice. SJDS Foundation is honored to partner with local dentists, dental team members, volunteers, and community supporters to make this important program possible.

Walk-ins are welcome; however, advance RSVPs are highly encouraged to ensure an appointment time is available. To schedule your appointment, please email foundation@sjds.org.

Notice: This event is intended to serve veterans who do not qualify for VA dental benefits because they do not have a service-connected dental disability or otherwise are not eligible for comprehensive VA dental care.
