Which Medi-Cal Plans We Take

What Does Medi-Cal Dental Cover?
Medi-Cal dental covers adults as well as children. It includes exams, x-rays, cleanings, fillings, root canals, crowns, deep cleaning, extractions, dentures and emergency care, each with the program’s own limits, and some need approval first. Implants, adult braces and whitening are generally not covered. Because every plan has its own rules, our office checks your coverage for free before any treatment begins, so you know what applies to you.
Our team can help you plan visits for children and adults in your household.
What to Expect at Your First Visit
Bring your Medi-Cal or CalOptima card and a photo ID. If you are not sure which plan you have, bring whatever paperwork you received. Our front office will review it with you and ask a few questions about your coverage.
At your visit, your dentist will examine your teeth and gums and talk with you about any treatment that is needed. Our office uses high-resolution digital imaging, which improves diagnostic accuracy while minimizing radiation compared to traditional film x-rays. We also keep electronic records so your treatment plan is clear and easy to follow.
If the dentist recommends treatment, our treatment coordinator, Joel Galindo, can walk you through the steps, the order they will happen in, and how your plan may apply to each step.
Costs, Insurance, and Payment Options
What you pay depends on your own plan. Some plans cover more than others, and some services may have limits set by the plan. We will check your plan for you and explain what it covers in plain language before you agree to any treatment.
If you do not have dental coverage, or your plan does not cover a service you need, we offer payment plans, affordable payment options, and 0% financing. Our team can talk through these options with you before any work is scheduled.
We also have new patient specials. These include a cleaning, exam, and x-rays for $59, free second opinions, and a free Invisalign consultation. These offers apply to new patients only and cannot be combined with any other offers or reduced-fee plans.

Our team focuses on comfortable, friendly care. We offer spa-like amenities to help you feel at ease during your visit, and we work to see patients on time. Our staff is trained to help you understand your coverage so you can make decisions with confidence.
