San Juan County Oral Health Programs

Access to Baby and Child Dentistry (ABCD):

The Access to Baby and Child Dentistry (ABCD) program puts young children across Washington state on a lifelong path to good oral health. ABCD connects low-income families with dentists who know how to care for young children, focusing on prevention and avoiding tooth decay, as well as educating parents about how to take good care of their children’s teeth.

Who is eligible?

Children from birth up to age six (6) who are insured by Washington Apple Health (Medicaid) are eligible to participate in ABCD.

If you need assistance enrolling your child in Apple Health (Medicaid), go to ParentHelp123.
