The final phase of this study provides a summary of a patient questionnaire evaluating the performance of the Department of Defense (DOD) dental readiness program from a customer perspective. Dental conditions have a strategic impact on unit readiness. This study, through a select sample reflects the state of dental readiness and future senior leader attitudes toward these services. Dental readiness throughout DOD has improved significantly in recent years.
