Denti-cal Dentist
What is denti-cal?
It’s important to maintain proper oral and dental health — especially when it comes to our children. But dental care can be expensive. That’s where Denti-Cal comes in.
Denti-Cal is a special program within California’s Medicaid program (known as Medi-Cal) that makes important dental services affordable and accessible to everyone who needs them. Denti-Cal is financed by the State of California and the federal government, and operates as a public health insurance program to provide health care services for those who need it most. The many benefits offered through Denti-Cal can help with taking good care of you and your children’s precious teeth and gums.
