Does medicad pay for dental implants?

Question

Ella Dekhtyar, DDS · Answer

If Original Medicare covers you "part A, B", then, unfortunately, you will not have coverage for dental implants.

David W. Epstein, DDS · Answer

Medicaid and Medicare Part B will not pay for dental implants. However if you find a surgical provider for Medicare part B they often pay towards bone grafting and sinus lifts. You need to check with Medicare to find a "surgical dental provider," not a "dentist." You need to have Part B and have a non-HMO secondary so not Medicaid, not Kaiser but something like AARP etc.
Hope this helps.

It is our understanding that implants are not covered by Medicaid (most private insurances don't have coverage for implants either).
However, you can check with your state guidelines on this issue.  Also, some hospitals may have programs that can help you cover portion of the procedure.
Thank you,
