Does Arizona Medicaid cover dental for adults?

Arizona's published Medicaid dental fee schedule lists reimbursement rates for adult procedures, including cleanings, fillings, and extractions, which means Arizona Medicaid pays for these when they are provided to adult members. Pediatric dental is federally mandated under EPSDT; adult dental is an optional benefit each state funds on its own, so covered procedures and annual limits vary. The rates below are what Medicaid pays when a service is reimbursed, not a statement of eligibility. Confirm current adult coverage with the Arizona Medicaid program.

Methodology

Rates are pulled from Arizona’s published Medicaid dental fee schedule, a public record. The national rank uses a fixed basket of six common procedures (periodic exam, adult and child cleaning, 1-surface filling, stainless steel crown, simple extraction) so every state is compared on the same procedures rather than on a raw average that code mix would distort. Where a state publishes separate adult and pediatric schedules, both are shown. These are fee-for-service schedule amounts (what Medicaid pays when a service is reimbursed), not a coverage or eligibility guarantee, and they do not reflect Medicaid managed-care plan rates. Confirm current rates and eligibility with the state Medicaid program.
