Bill overview
This bill, An Act relative to providing dental care to senior citizens, seeks to expand dental coverage for older adults in Massachusetts. It would authorize the Division of Medical Assistance to cover dentures, restorative dental work, endodontic treatment (root canals), and periodontal treatment for individuals aged 65 and older. The goal is to improve oral health and overall well-being for seniors who may otherwise struggle to afford necessary dental care. This legislation builds upon previous attempts to address this need.
