Children covered by Medicaid can receive dental care at no cost, making this a convenient option for parents.
Tooth decay is the No. 1 chronic disease of childhood—but it’s preventable. When children visit the dentist regularly, children are more likely to receive care that keeps them healthy, in school, and ready to learn.
