Preliminary questions [19110]
there is some evidence that a fracture of the alveolar bone supporting the affected tooth or disruption of the alveolar bone supporting the affected tooth may be a factor in the development of the condition under consideration.19138 the veteran had a fracture of the alveolar bone supporting the affected tooth or disruption of the alveolar bone supporting the affected tooth before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.
19140 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the fracture or disruption of the alveolar bone and VEA service for the clinical onset of loss of teeth.
19141 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the fracture or disruption of the alveolar bone and operational service for the clinical onset of loss of teeth.
or
19142 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the fracture or disruption of the alveolar bone and eligible service for the clinical onset of loss of teeth.
Clinical onset and operational service [19141]
the fracture of the alveolar bone supporting the affected tooth or disruption of the alveolar bone supporting the affected tooth before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration was caused by operational service. the fracture of the alveolar bone supporting the affected tooth or disruption of the alveolar bone supporting the affected tooth before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration, which was caused by operational service, was due to the veteran's serious default, wilful act or serious breach of discipline.Clinical onset and eligible service [19142]
the fracture of the alveolar bone supporting the affected tooth or disruption of the alveolar bone supporting the affected tooth before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration was caused by eligible service. the fracture of the alveolar bone supporting the affected tooth or disruption of the alveolar bone supporting the affected tooth before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration, which was caused by eligible service, was due to the veteran's serious default, wilful act or serious breach of discipline.
