Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for service connection for a dental condition (claimed as perio surgery with bone loss) due to lack of evidence supporting in-service trauma or disease resulting in loss of substance of the body of maxilla or mandible.
The deciding factor: The probative medical evidence did not support a finding that the Veteran sustained a dental trauma during service or currently has a disability related to such trauma.
