EPSDT Best Practices
A new feature highlighting community strategies for serving children
enrolled in EPSDT Care for Kids
Iowa Agencies that Provide EPSDT Dental Screening
Dental hygienists in seven child health centers that serve 26 Iowa counties are providing dental
care for children enrolled in Iowa’s EPSDT Care for Kids program. These services include:
- Dental health education
- Dental health screenings
- Fluoride varnish treatment
- Referral to dentists as needed
Some counties provide services to all children, while others focus on reaching specific age groups,
particularly children from birth to age three. Working together, community providers are finding
ways to better utilize valuable resources. As a result, more children are getting the dental care
they need.
