At Rio Dental, we strive to provide everyone with quality dental care, regardless of income level or financial situation. Our office accepts Medicaid and CHIP (Children’s Health Insurance Program) coverage for low-income families in Garland, TX. No matter what, we ensure you and your family receive top-notch oral care whenever you visit us.
Medicaid
If you enroll in Medicaid and CHIP coverage in Texas, you’re entitled to dental care. Anyone with limited income can apply for Medicaid and CHIP insurance. The Texas Administrative Code allows families multiple dental services and treatments, including
- Dental checkups
- Diagnostics
- Preventative care
- Therapeutic and orthodontics
- Emergency care
- Medically necessary treatments
However, orthodontic services for cosmetic reasons are not Medicaid-covered services. All orthodontic services must have prior authorization for severe dental services, like malocclusion or other conditions.
CHIP
The Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) extends coverage to families living above the federal poverty line but cannot afford private dental insurance. We focus our family dentistry services and treatments for all family members regardless of income level.
If you have a newborn, we recommend you see us as soon as their first baby tooth comes in. This early intervention allows the dentist to check the development of your child’s smile and bite. We want to catch problems sooner rather than later.
