CareQuest Institute for Oral Health® applauds members of the US House and Senate Military Construction and Veterans Affairs Appropriations Subcommittees for including language in their respective versions of the FY24 appropriations bills that would require the US Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to assess its oral health care program and its ability to adequately meet the needs of current and future veterans.

As the use of dangerous at-home health remedies continues to gain traction on social media, CareQuest Institute for Oral Health®, a leading national nonprofit focused on creating a more accessible, equitable, and integrated oral health system, is warning people about the dangers of treating oral pain at home.
