How do I find someone who takes Medicaid to make dentures that fit Mom’s mouth since it has gum loss?

I just want to say, that it would have to be a Medicaid dentist.

My nephew was paying cash for his Neurologist before Medicaid. Neurologist did not take Medicaid and was not allowed to take cash because Nephew was on full Medicaid. We had to go to a Medicaid neurologist,

In my experience in my state (MN) there are very few dentists who accept Medicaid. On my state's Dept of Human Services website under "Prosthodontics" it says dentures will be covered to be replaced every 6 years. If you are replacing dentures for an LO you need to get authorization from Medicaid to make sure it is covered first.

Try to find a dentist from this website:

You can call the Dental plan that Medicaid provides. Ask them if there is anyone in the area who does Dentures and excepts Medicaid. Ask his Dentist, who needs to be a Medicaid Dentist, for a referral.
