Medi-Cal Dental accepted
Medi-Cal Dental (Denti-Cal) in Diamond Bar
We accept Medi-Cal Dental, California's dental program for Medi-Cal members, often still called Denti-Cal. Our team verifies your eligibility and benefits before treatment, so you know what is covered before you decide.
How it works at our office
- Call us or request an appointment and let us know you have Medi-Cal.
- Bring your Medi-Cal Benefits Identification Card (BIC) and a photo ID to your visit.
- We check your eligibility and benefits, and request any required prior authorization.
- Before treatment, we explain what Medi-Cal covers and anything that is not covered.
What Medi-Cal Dental commonly covers
Medi-Cal Dental covers a broad set of services for children and adults. Commonly covered care includes:
- Exams, X-rays, and cleanings
- Fillings
- Root canal treatment
- Crowns, in many cases
- Complete and partial dentures
- Extractions
- Emergency dental services
When a treatment is not covered
If the option you prefer is not covered, we explain the covered alternatives and the cost of the others in writing. Cherry and CareCredit financing may help with care outside your benefits.
Specialist care with Medi-Cal
Our team includes a prosthodontist, a board-certified endodontist, and a board-certified periodontist, so complex care such as root canal treatment, gum treatment, and dentures can often be provided in one office.
Care in your language
We support English, Spanish, Chinese, Farsi, Filipino, Arabic, and Turkish. Tell us your preferred language when you call.
Do you accept new Medi-Cal Dental patients?
Yes, we welcome new patients with Medi-Cal Dental. Call (909) 598-9097 or request an appointment online, and our team will confirm your eligibility.
Is Denti-Cal the same as Medi-Cal Dental?
Yes. Denti-Cal is the former name of the Medi-Cal Dental Program, and many people still use it.
What do I need to bring?
Your Medi-Cal Benefits Identification Card (BIC), a photo ID, and a list of your current medications.
Does Medi-Cal Dental cover dental implants?
Only in limited circumstances, and prior authorization is required. We'll explain covered alternatives, such as dentures, and the options that are not covered.
Can I use Medi-Cal and pay for other treatment?
Yes. Medi-Cal covers its approved services, and you may choose other treatment at your own cost. We explain the difference in writing before anything is scheduled.
