Shuttleworth Dental Clinic Expands Services to Adult Dependents and Retirees

We are excited to announce that starting February 4th 2025, the Shuttleworth Dental Clinic on Fort Irwin becomes the first, and only, CONUS location to offer dental care to adult dependents and retirees with TRICARE dental insurance! This is a significant step forward in providing comprehensive dental services to our military community. 
To ensure quality care and streamlined scheduling, Tuesdays and Thursdays will be reserved for adult dependent and retiree appointments.

What to Expect

During the first few months, appointments will focus on 90-minute new patient visits, which include:
  •  X-rays
  •  Exams
  •  Routine hygiene care

Following the initial appointments, patients can access a full range of dental services, including:
  •  Examinations
  •  Cleanings (Prophylaxis)
  •  Preventive Services (Fluoride, Sealants, Instruction)
  •  Tooth Fillings (Restorative), 
  •  Root Canals (Endodontics), 
  •  Crowns
  •  Extractions (Oral Surgery)
Note: The clinic does not offer cosmetic or orthodontic services at this time.

Scheduling Information

To book an appointment, please call the Shuttleworth Dental Clinic. The best time to call is between 2 and 4 p.m., ensuring prompt assistance.

Cancellation Policy

We kindly request that cancellations be made at least 24 hours in advance.
• Patients who miss two appointments without providing proper notice will forfeit their eligibility to be seen at the clinic.

Emergency Sick Call

Emergency sick call hours remain available from 7:20 to 9:30 a.m., Monday through Friday for urgent dental needs.

Space Available

Appointments are first come, first served on a space available basis. Active duty service members remain our mission priority. Beneficiaries are still eligible to receive care at other dental facilities in the event we cannot perform a necessary procedure or no appointments are available.

This expansion of services reflects our ongoing commitment to the health and wellness of our military families and retirees. We look forward to serving you and ensuring that your dental care needs are met with the highest standards of quality and professionalism.
