Accessing a Dentist

Some Federally Qualified Health Care Clinics have dental clinics on site.  You will need to contact each site to verify that they are currently providing dental services for new patients.  When reviewing the clinic sites, try to locate and contact one closest to the area in which you live.

Wisconsin Technical College Dental Hygiene Program Clinics

Many dentists in private practice accept Medical Assistance (MA), however, some of them are not accepting new patients who are covered by MA.  Please contact dentists in your area to inquire about obtaining dental services.

Urgent Care Dental Form

Wisconsin Medicaid Urgent Care Dental In-State Emergency Provider Data Sheet HCF11013 (Rev. 01/04).

The Urgent Care Dental Provider Form is ONLY for non-Medicaid certified providers.  It is intended to allow non-Medicaid certified dentists to provide limited dental care on an urgent basis.  Only those procedures listed on the form can be performed.  This form in no way obligates a dentist to accept Medicaid patients on an emergency or continuing basis.
