Oral health is integral to overall health, yet oral health inequities persist. Several Medicaid programs have recently added or expanded adult dental coverage, while others are piloting enhanced dental benefits for adults with chronic conditions and during pregnancy. States also are engaging providers such as community health workers in supporting oral health. NASHP helps states identify opportunities and strategies to tackle costly, preventable oral health needs while improving overall health and advancing health equity.
