In North Dakota, a dental implant cost reflects service prices, including dental care, that run about 9% below the US average. Adults 21 and older get limited coverage through North Dakota Medicaid. No annual dollar cap is stated for adults. Even so, implants aren't listed as covered services by the state program, so please contact your plan and ask about options. Instead, both full and partial dentures are covered. Your dental benefits cover dentures, plus root canal treatments, crowns, tooth extractions, X-rays, and exams. Anterior teeth, meaning your front teeth, are the only teeth covered for root canal treatments and crowns when you're an adult member aged 21 or older.
Every 5 years, Medicaid covers an upper denture without service authorization, or prior approval, to help people on a fixed income. Every denture covered by the program is subject to a 5-year limitation. When affordable care is what you need, try reaching out to the Allied Dental Clinic at North Dakota State College of Science (NDSCS). Dental hygiene faculty members, along with a supervising dentist, supervise students who provide all clinic services. The clinic doesn't confirm implant care, so give them a call to find out what they provide (checking ahead saves a trip). Before you have surgery, you should check your dentist's license. You can look up dental licenses online through the North Dakota State Board of Dental Examiners.
