Please read your big Medicare handbook that should have come in the mail...I believe as Marcia said the dental benefits are slim under solely standard Medicare. For more dental or vision coverage people usually have to have either a Supplemental plan that includes it, a stand alone Dental and Vision Plan or belong to a Medicare Advantage (not standard Medicare) plan that includes it.
My mother was offered a Medicare advantage plan that had dental services included. Her original Medicare has very limited coverage for her teeth. I think it covers things like the repair of teeth damaged in an accident-not cleanings, fillings or xrays.
