Five-minute checklist before you call
Federal data tells you a dentist exists and is enumerated. It does not confirm insurance acceptance, current availability, or office fit. Use this list when you call so the visit isn’t a surprise.
Confirm insurance & out-of-pocket cost
- “Do you accept my exact insurance plan? (give the carrier, plan name, and member ID)”
- “Are you accepting new Delaware Medicaid patients right now?”
- “What is the out-of-pocket cost I should expect for the type of visit I need?”
- “If you are out of network for me, can you bill my insurer or only me?”
Verify the dentist & availability
- “Is Melanie M Snyder the dentist who will see me, or another provider in the practice?”
- “Are you accepting new patients? When is the next available appointment?”
- “Will the same dentist handle follow-up visits, or rotate?”

See full list →What is a dental public health?
Dental public health practitioners work on community-wide dental issues rather than seeing individual patients in private practice. They run public health programs (Medicaid dental, school sealant programs, water fluoridation policy), do epidemiological research, and consult on access-to-care problems like dental HPSAs.
Training. After dental school, a public health dentist completes a 1- to 3-year residency that often includes a Master of Public Health (MPH) degree. Board certification is through the American Board of Dental Public Health.
