      <title>Smiles Dental Hosts Smiles for Veterans in Oregon and Washington Offices</title>

      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Smiles Dental is honoring our veterans with the gift of good health during the month of November. The dental practice invites community members in Oregon and Washington to nominate a veteran to receive up to $3000 toward their dental treatment plan.</p><p>Longview, WA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 11/09/2015 --  Eight local dental offices are seeking the help of their communities to nominate a deserving veteran in each office to receive up to $3,000 toward their full treatment plan. Smiles Dental is once again honoring local veterans with the gift of good dental health and a great smile. One of last year&apos;s honorees was Kristopher North, an active member of the Longview, WA community, and veteran of the Army National Guard.<br />
<br />
"I just want to say Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone at Smiles Dental Longview for everything you have done for me.... Because of you, I now have a complete smile once again. This has truly been life changing for me. Bless each and every one of you." –Kristopher North from Smiles Dental Longview&apos;s Facebook Page<br />
<br />
"There is a huge need for veterans in our community and in our country to receive quality care, especially when it comes to their oral health. Our team recognized this need and decided to provide this gift and change a Veteran&apos;s life for the better," explains <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Dr. Ken Killpack" href="https://www.ridgefieldwadentist.com/meet-our-team/">Dr. Ken Killpack</a> of Smiles Dental Ridgefield, WA.<br />

It is our privilege to give back to our Veterans."<br />
<br />
According to the United States Department of Veteran Affairs , as of September 30, 2014 there were 936,000 veterans in Washington State and Oregon. Of these, approximately 223,483 (about 25.5%) unique patients received healthcare at a VA health care facility. The Center for Disease Control  shows the number of American adults in 2013, ages 18-64, with a dental visit in the past year was approximately 62%. The same study by the CDC shows around 20% of American adults have no usual source of healthcare and that 11% did not receive needed dental care due to cost.<br />
<br />
The Smiles Dental offices invite all community members to nominate a veteran and will then randomly select one winner from each office to receive up to a $3,000 gift towards their treatment plan. There are eight Smiles Dental locations participating in Smiles for Veterans: Longview, Ridgefield, Hazel Dell and East Vancouver in Washington and NE Portland, Hollywood District, Milwaukie and Riddle in Oregon. Nomination forms, rules, and guidelines are available in your local Smiles Dental offices and are also outlined on each location&apos;s website.  The deadline to complete and submit each nomination is Wednesday, November 25 at 5:00pm and the winning nominee in each office will be randomly selected and announced on December 1, 2015.<br />

Joining Smiles Dental will allow Dr. Lee and the team to focus their energy on treating patients, while the Smiles Dental professional team will oversee the day-to-day office operations and administrative functions within the practice. <br />
<br />
Jacob Lewis, Chief Financial Officer of Smiles Dental, is pleased with this new addition to the Smiles Dental family because he knows Dr. Lee and the team will continue to provide exceptional dental service to the Hollywood District neighborhood.<br />
<br />
"We know patients have come to expect exceptional dental care from this office and we are here to help continue to exceed that expectation. Dr. Lee and the team in the Portland Hollywood District, share our mission of ultimate service, superior performance and positive impact; we are happy to have them join the Smiles family," says Lewis.<br />
<br />
Dr. Lee is ready to work with Smiles Dental, as he explains, "As a part of the Smiles Dental team, I am able to focus on treating all my patients like my own family; my goal is to give each individual a wonderful, enjoyable experience when coming to the dentist. Smiles Dental&apos;s mission aligns and assists our team with the achievement of this goal."<br />
<br />
For current patients who are curious about the change, there may be little noticeable difference. Many familiar faces will continue to be seen within the practice such as Nadine Huey, who has been a full-time hygienist at the location for years.<br />
<br />
According to Smiles Dental, recent trends show that many individual dentists are opting to join dental groups in order to simplify their routine operations. This gives the doctors freedom to focus solely on patient care, while the daily administrative processes are attended to by trained staff members.<br />
