PAMI Reaffirms 'Sonrisa Mayor' Dental Program, Clarifies Home-Visit Rules

Beneficiaries schedule through an assigned dentist overseeing referrals.

Overview

  • PAMI confirmed continued nationwide access to comprehensive, no-cost dental care for affiliated retirees and pensioners under Sonrisa Mayor.
  • Home dental visits are limited to affiliates who cannot travel, are institutionalized, or require anesthesia, monitoring, or hospitalization.
  • Covered services include emergencies, endodontics, high‑complexity treatments, rehabilitation, and diagnostic imaging, with domiciliary care available only when eligibility criteria are met.
  • To use the benefit, patients book with their reference dentist, obtain a referral order for specialist procedures, consult the PAMI provider directory, and contact the chosen provider for an appointment.
  • PAMI also fully covers dental prostheses and implants where indicated, requiring DNI, the PAMI credential, and referral documentation when applicable.
