1. Government Programs

• Medicaid: Seniors who have limited income and resources may qualify for Medicaid, a state and federal program that provides free or low-cost healthcare, including dental care.
• Medicare: While Medicare does not cover routine dental care, it may cover dental services that are considered medically necessary, such as dental treatments required before a medical procedure or hospitalization.
• State and Local Programs: Some states and local governments offer dental assistance programs specifically designed for seniors. These programs may provide free or reduced-cost dental services to eligible individuals.
