Why Dental Care Matters

Untreated dental issues drive chronic pain, infection, poor nutrition, and confidence loss — all of which undermine reintegration. Bringing full-service dental care on campus removes a major barrier to stability, employability, and overall health for veterans and their households.

Clinic Capabilities

Two Fully Equipped Chairs

Restorative, preventative, surgical, and prosthetic procedures delivered on campus for veterans and families.

Digital Imaging & 3D Scanning

Intraoral 3D scanner with CAD/CAM modeling plus panoramic X-ray and Cone Beam CT for precise diagnostics.

Same-Day Crowns & Restorations

CEREC-style milling for crowns, bridges, dentures, and implant components without external labs.

Emergency & Surgical Care

On-island capability for emergency oral surgery, trauma management, and infection control during crises.

Features & Equipment

Dental Suite Concept Layout

This concept floor plan illustrates how a complete two-chair digital dental clinic fits within a compact, container-based footprint while preserving proper clinical flow, imaging isolation, sterilization standards, and sound control.

Conceptual two-container dental suite layout (~40’ × 20’). Final dimensions, shielding, and utilities subject to clinical and regulatory review.

The layout supports clean one-direction sterilization flow, isolated CBCT imaging, on-site CAD/CAM fabrication, and sound-controlled mechanical systems—allowing same-day restorative and surgical care without off-island referrals.

Built Into Village 5

The dental suite sits within Village 5’s health and wellness footprint, alongside counseling, behavioral health, and family services. That placement keeps care accessible, private, and coordinated with the campus clinical team.

Island Resilience Role

During disasters, the on-site dental suite reduces load on local hospitals by providing emergency oral surgery and trauma management. It strengthens St. Croix’s medical readiness while keeping veterans’ care online.
