- Adults with KanCare insurance can receive dental exams and cleanings at least once per year. In addition, United Healthcare will provide one x-ray per year and those with a FE waiver may be eligible to receive dentures at no cost. Tooth extractions may be covered if they are considered medically necessary.
- Call the phone number on your health insurance card to find out how to find a dentist near you who takes your insurance.
- Be sure to let your dentist know that you’re enrolled in KanCare or give them the name of your health plan when you make an appointment for care.
