The ADA is collecting patient and provider stories to help advocate for protecting oral health in Medicaid programs. As we continue to advocate for dental services in state programs for low-income families and adults, personal experiences will demonstrate what dentists and dental professionals are doing to improve oral health. Some things we want to know:

What impact has their dental care had on their lives? Any specific patients who come to mind that would not have been able to get by without Medicaid dental coverage?

Do you treat adults, and does your state have an adult dental benefit?

What would happen if your state cut adult dental benefits due to a loss of funding from the federal government?
