Muskie School Capstones and Dissertations

Although we know that children covered by Medicaid often do not receive needed dental services, the extent of the problem in Maine is not fully understood.

This project addresses these gaps in knowledge by examining MaineCare- funded utilization and dental care access for children with MaineCare in four rural Maine towns in the Lakes Region.
