Dental Program

The Alabama Medicaid Dental Program covers certain routine preventive and restorative services for children under the age of 21 who have full Medicaid eligibility. Also, effective October 1, 2022, Alabama Medicaid began reimbursing for dental services rendered to pregnant recipients who are ages 21 and older during pregnancy, and during postpartum in accordance with 42 CFR § 440.210(a)(3), when the services are rendered by Alabama Medicaid-enrolled dental providers. See more information about Dental Coverage for Pregnant Recipients below.
