Information for Patients
Our goal is to be the primary treatment option for active duty service members, TRICARE-eligible beneficiaries, and veterans. Active duty service members may be eligible for travel expense funding if referred from outside of the catchment area of our locations.
Our Maxillofacial Restoration capabilities include dental rehabilitation coupled with microvascular reconstructive surgery. The combination of these capabilities is rarely found in the United States; our team is committed to bridging the gap between dentistry and surgery. Unlike traditional reconstruction which may focus solely on surgical repair, our program emphasizes complete restoration.
If you have questions or would like to contact the Maxillofacial Restoration team about your potential care, please visit the Maxillofacial Restoration Clearinghouse or send an email to: dha.ncr.Medical-Affairs.mbx.mfrcoe@health.mil

MTF providers may initiate a referral for virtual consultation at the Center of Excellence using MHS GENESIS Referral Management 2.0.
