title: Dental reimbursement: helping victims smile again.
abstract: By educating themselves and their staff members about services for crime victims, dentists play a crucial role in helping crime victims receive the care they need. When a crime victim needs dental work, they may be unaware of the other assistance available through the Victims Compensation Program. Dental care made possible through compensation helps victims begin to heal.
