Samia Family Dentistry Offers Free Dental Care Day for Veterans
On November 14, 2025, Samia Family Dentistry in Garner, North Carolina, will host a Free Dental Care Day specifically for veterans. This initiative aims to honor and support those who have dedicated their lives to serving the country.
Dr. Paul Samia, the lead dentist, recognizes that many veterans face challenges in accessing necessary dental care. To express gratitude for their service, he and his team will provide a variety of free dental services, including fillings, extractions, cleanings, crowns, X-rays, fluoride treatments, and consultations. The event is planned to run from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM, allowing veterans ample opportunity to come in and receive the care they deserve.
According to statistics, the struggle doesn't end after military service for many veterans. Over half experience feelings of loneliness and disconnection from the camaraderie built during their time in service. As of January 2024, the number of homeless veterans was estimated to be around 32,800, showcasing the critical issues these individuals face post-deployment. This event at Samia Family Dentistry not only addresses dental health but also aims to bring veterans together, fostering a sense of community and support.
Dr. Samia, originating from Wake Forest, NC, has dedicated his career to community service and volunteer work. His past efforts include providing dental care through initiatives like Mission of Mercy and Give Kids a Smile, as well as participating in a dental mission to Kenya. He understands the necessity of giving back, especially to those who have sacrificed for freedoms enjoyed by the public.
In his words, “Our veterans have given so much for us and our freedoms. This is our way of giving something back to them. We want to make sure that every veteran in our community knows they are valued, respected, and cared for.”
Local veterans wishing to participate are invited to bring their veteran identification for verification. Although prior appointments are encouraged, walk-ins will also be accepted as long as space allows. The Samia Family Dentistry team is eager to make this event as inclusive and accessible as possible.
To ensure the message reaches all veterans in the community, Samia Family Dentistry is calling upon local media and organizations to help spread the word about this rewarding initiative. It's an opportunity for community members to show appreciation for those who have fought for their freedoms. By offering free dental services, the local dental team hopes to provide not just care, but a reminder of the appreciation and respect veterans deserve.
