I've tried to read up a little on Medicare and denistry but still had a question. I've read that Medicare does not cover routine procedures in regards to dental care.

Does Medicare cover any extraction of teeth secondary to radiation or chemotherapy treatment for cancer?

I mostly deal with Medicare on the basis of eye examinations and a friend asked about this, so I wasn't sure.

Thanks for any responses.
