Maria Edusada pins the insignia on the Dental Corps officer, July 1, 2024, at Navy Medicine Readiness Training Command Bremerton. As the senior dental executive, Nghiem for 17 years has adhered to the Navy Surgeon General's priority of operational readiness by ensuring healthcare services remain key for the Fleet’s physical and mental needs. “Oral health is a key integral part of healthcare and Navy Medicine. It's the gate to systemic health and life-essential enjoyment of nutritious food. Dental health also bolsters individuals' confidence in their smiles and hence improve their mental health. Besides, strong teeth are a back-up tool for defense, “can't bite, can't fight,”” stressed Nghiem (Official Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Jennifer Benedict, NHB/NMRTC Bremerton public affairs officer).
