Question:

I have a 100 percent VA disability rating and I have medicare part A and part B. Am I eligible to get a medicare advantage plan with dental? I am 56 years old.

Sure...if you're willing to pay for it. I'm also 100% rated and eligible for dental care at VA. I choose to pay for a plan and use civilian dentists at my own expense. My plan is made available through VA  and is similar to every other plan out there. It pays for routine stuff, it costs too much and there are steep copays for everything else. 

I'm sure Medicare offers similar and I'd suggest that you use Google search to discover helpful articles like this one. In the end we will pay a steep price for our dental and vision services no matter which way we go.
