Dental Health Health Center

Sometimes dental care can be costly. Medicare does not typically cover routine dental care. There are only a few states that offer dental coverage under Medicaid. Make sure you check the costs and services that are covered under your dental insurance.

There are several alternative resources you can use when searching for low-cost dental care. Some dental schools allow students to treat patients at a reduced cost and are supervised by qualified dentists. Dental hygiene schools also offer low-cost care treatments as part of the training experience for dental hygienists. United Way chapters may also be able to help you locate free or reduced-cost dental services in your area.
