OMAHA, Neb. (KMTV) — Most veterans do not receive dental care through the Veterans Administration unless they are 100 percent disabled, so Aspen Dental is stepping up to help them out.

Aspen Dental's Mouth Mobile is providing free care to veterans in Omaha from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. The stop in Omaha is part of an 18-stop cross-country tour this fall. The Mouth Mobile is a fully equipped dental office on wheels. An additional service of free oral cancer screening is also part of the care.

Appointments are still available but filling up fast. To make an appointment, contact Steph Sallese at 402-628-7388.

The Mouth Mobile is a 42-foot-long dental office on wheels, and will be staffed by local Aspen Dental dentists and hygienists. The event is taking place at Lewis & Clark Landing.
