What is Medi-Cal Insurance?
Medi-Cal is California’s Medicaid program that provides free or low-cost health coverage, including dental benefits, to eligible low-income individuals and families. The program covers essential dental services such as cleanings, exams, fillings, extractions, and emergency care for qualified patients. At Azusa Dental Studio, we currently accept Medi-Cal to help make quality dental care accessible to our community members who need affordable treatment options.

About Medi-Cal’s Coverage Limits
Medi-Cal dental coverage has an annual benefit limit of $1,800 per adult patient for most dental services, which resets each calendar year and covers a combination of preventive, basic, and major treatments. However, emergency dental care and certain medically necessary procedures may receive coverage beyond this limit when prior authorization is obtained. At Azusa Dental Studio, we help you maximize your Medi-Cal benefits by prioritizing essential treatments and working within your coverage limits to provide the most effective care possible.
