Seniors and people with disabilities would get dental and denture coverage through Medicare.
Millions of seniors and people with disabilities would get dental coverage under Medicare Part B, starting January 1, 2028. This bill would add comprehensive dental and oral health services, including cleanings, fillings, and dentures. While most would see costs gradually covered over eight years, low-income individuals would get 80 percent coverage right away.
Today, Medicare Part B generally does not cover dental services or dentures, meaning millions of seniors and people with disabilities pay for these costs themselves. If this bill becomes law, Medicare Part B would cover a wide range of dental and oral health services and dental prostheses starting January 1, 2028. For most, Medicare would gradually cover costs up to 80 percent over eight years, while low-income individuals would get 80 percent coverage immediately.
