Will medicare cover a chipped tooth?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Probably not: Medicare does not cover routine dental care or most dental procedures such as cleanings, fillings, tooth extractions or dentures. In rare cases, medicare part b will pay for certain dental services. In addition, medicare part a will pay for certain dental services that you get when you are in the hospital. Some medicare advantage plans may include dental benefits.

Probably not: It will not cover routine dental services unless it is in the hospital or related to a systemic disease like cancer.
