Child Dental Benefits Schedule

Most parents understand that taking their children to the dentist regularly is crucial for maintaining their dental health from an early age. Routine check-ups help prevent decay and other dental problems that could lead to more serious and expensive issues down the line.

However, the cost of dental visits and treatments for children can add up.
To help offset these costs, families can access up to $1132.00 per eligible child for basic dental services over a two-year period through Medicare’s Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS).
