About dentures and crowns

A prosthodontist specialises in replacing missing teeth and restoring damaged ones: dentures, crowns, bridges and implant-supported teeth. Dentures are among the services adult Medicaid most often limits, so it is worth checking your state's rules first.

Paying for a visit

This is a community health center. Federal rules require it to offer discounts based on income and household size, and it cannot turn you away because you cannot pay. How sliding-scale fees work at community health centers

In Missouri, adult Medicaid covers some adult dental care, but not everything. What Missouri Medicaid covers, service by service

Questions to ask when you call

• Are you taking new patients, and how soon is the first appointment?
• Does Robert Swords see adults, and do you take my Medicaid plan?
• Do I need a referral from a general dentist first?
• What income documents should I bring to get the sliding-fee discount?
• What will the first visit cost me, and what will it include?

A dentist registered at an address may work there only some days, or may have moved on. The clinic's front desk can confirm.
