Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for bilateral hearing loss and tinnitus, but denied service connection for a dental condition, claimed as fillings deterioration. The right eye disability, gastroesophageal disability, and inguinal hernia claims were remanded.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the evidence supporting the continuity of symptoms for hearing loss and tinnitus, while the dental condition did not meet the criteria for compensation under VA regulations.
