Mid-1990s review of Medicaid and Medicaid dentistry

In light of a federal report on the extremely limited availability of preventive dental services for children under the Medicaid program, a review is provided of the evolving comparative share of general health expenditures and Medicaid funds that are spent on dental services. The findings indicate that during the 1990s, dentistry in general and within the Medicaid program occupies a continuing decreasing share of expenditures.
