Medicaid Making Dental Care Affordable

Many families in Reno delay dental care because they can't find providers who accept Medicaid or offer affordable rates. We're changing that.

Whether you're a parent caring for children, an adult managing ongoing dental needs, or someone looking for urgent treatment, we're here to help.

Our team works directly with LIBERTY Dental, the administrator of Nevada Medicaid dental benefits, to ensure your care is fully supported.

  • Schedule preventive visits on time
  • Access treatment when something's wrong
  • Understand what's covered and how to stay within your benefits
