Register read September 29, 2026
This is the District of Columbia page of the practice finder: what the U.S. government’s NPI register (NPPES) lists across the 1 cities we cover — 34 denture specialists (each with a profile carrying the register record), 33 oral & maxillofacial surgeons and 271 registered dental organizations — plus the two state-level facts that matter before you call anyone: what District of Columbia Medicaid pays, and where to verify a license.

Does Medicaid cover dentures in District of Columbia?
DC Medicaid (Department of Health Care Finance): Removable partial and full dentures are listed among dental benefits for beneficiaries age 21 and older in the 2025 FFS member handbook (alongside exams/cleanings every 6 months, fillings, extractions, root canals); DHCF dental rulemaking limits initial placement of a removable prosthesis to once every five years
That summary is from the program’s own published wording, read September 28, 2026 — District of Columbia’s row on the state-by-state table carries the quote, the source and its date.
Verify a District of Columbia license
An NPI record is not proof of an active license — CMS says so itself. Every profile on this site links DC Health's license verification (Board of Dentistry), and you can verify any District of Columbia dental license there in about a minute. If what you find disagrees with a listing here, tell us.
How this list works
Everything on this page comes from one source: the federal NPI register (NPPES), read on September 29, 2026. It lists every provider in District of Columbia whose register address matches, alphabetically. No one can pay to be added, removed or reordered, and there are no ratings or reviews here — we have not called or visited these practices.
Three caveats the register itself requires: an NPI number is not proof of an active license (verify one at the District of Columbia license lookup), addresses are self-reported and can be stale, and a listing says nothing about quality. If you are listed here and something is wrong, tell us and we will correct or remove the entry against the register.
