Does Medicare cover tooth extractions?

Medicare typically does not cover routine dental procedures, including tooth extractions, unless they are deemed medically necessary due to an underlying health condition. For example, if a tooth extraction is required as part of a treatment for a medical issue, Medicare may provide coverage. However, for standard dental care, including extractions, beneficiaries usually need to rely on separate dental insurance plans. Always check with Medicare and your dental provider for specific coverage details.
