Kiecker Dental Clinic

The Kiecker Dental Clinic is a key component of the 4th Medical Group at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base in Goldsboro, North Carolina. It functions as a military dental treatment facility (DTF) and is integral to the comprehensive healthcare services provided by the 4th Medical Group, which also includes the Thomas Koritz Clinic for primary and specialty medical care. The 4th Medical Group, a unit of the 4th Fighter Wing in Air Combat Command, serves a large beneficiary population of over 35,000 individuals, with more than 10,000 enrolled for care. Kiecker Dental Clinic offers a range of essential dental services to active-duty military personnel and their beneficiaries. These services typically include restorative dentistry (fillings, crowns), endodontics (root canals), periodontics (gum disease treatment), and oral surgery. The clinic operates Monday through Friday, from 7:15 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., with specific hours and closures for training. Appointments can be scheduled by phone, and the clinic also handles dental emergencies during and after hours. In a notable development, the Kiecker Dental Clinic has recently partnered with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to establish a VA Dental Clinic on-site. This collaboration allows the clinic to extend its services to eligible veterans with base access, marking an inaugural partnership at the 4th Fighter Wing dental clinic. This initiative enhances access to dental care for veterans by having VA dental workers collaborate with Kiecker Dental Clinic Airmen. The clinic is committed to operational readiness, outstanding customer service, and delivering world-class healthcare within the military health system framework. For individuals seeking dental care outside of military dental clinics, TRICARE offers dental coverage for service members, families, and survivors, while retired service members and their families may qualify for coverage through the Federal Employees Dental and Vision Insurance Program.
