in response to 1stCavArmyVet...As a vet you can go to the nearest VA Hospitals Emergency Room. Tell them you are in extreme pain. They can't turn you away.You will have to pay but it is very little. This is what we were told by a doctor to get around the policy where they don't cover dental. Just make sure at the emergency room you tell them "I am in ALOT of PAIN!!!!!!!"
