Question 1

How do I find a special needs dentist that takes Medicaid?

Accepted Answer

44,574 Medicaid-listed dental providers across 39 states are flagged this way in official state submissions: the state's submission marks the practice as accommodating patients with special healthcare needs. Pick your state below, then call the office to confirm both the Medicaid plan and the accommodation, because state rosters run ahead of reality.

Question 2

Where does this information come from?

Accepted Answer

Every state Medicaid program is federally required (CMS-10291) to submit its dental provider list to the InsureKidsNow locator, including practice attributes like languages spoken and special-needs accommodation. ProviderSignal republishes those submissions in a browsable form with the state's own update dates preserved.
