Do I need a referral to see a pediatric dentist?

It depends on your plan. Many dental specialists see patients without a referral, but some dental HMO (DHMO) and Medicaid plans require one from your general dentist before they will pay. Check your plan documents or call the number on your insurance card before booking.

Do these pediatric dentists take my dental insurance?

The NPI registry does not record which insurance plans a provider accepts, so we do not show it. Use your insurer's online provider directory and confirm with the office by phone, since networks change.

How is a pediatric dentist different from a general dentist?

A pediatric dentist is a dentist who completed an accredited advanced education program in the specialty after dental school. Pediatric dentists care for infants, children and teens, and often for patients with special health care needs. Their offices are usually set up for younger patients and for preventive care such as sealants and fluoride.

Where does this information come from?

Names, addresses, phone numbers and specialties come from the public NPPES NPI registry run by CMS. We do not add ratings, prices or opening hours. If a listing is wrong, the provider can update it in NPPES.
