Medicaid is a government healthcare program that provides health coverage to low-income individuals and families. Dental care is an essential part of overall health, and Medicaid covers a wide range of dental services, including preventive care, restorative care, and emergency care.
The specific dental services that are covered by Medicaid vary from state to state. However, all states must cover basic preventive care, such as cleanings, exams, and fluoride treatments. Most states also cover restorative care, such as fillings, crowns, and bridges. Emergency care, such as tooth extractions and root canals, is also covered by Medicaid in all states.
