Dental Benefits

DeltaCare USA plans require you to visit your chosen DeltaCare USA primary care dentist to receive coverage. If you need to see a specialist, your DeltaCare USA dentist will refer you.

Under the DPPO plan, members may seek services from dentists participating in the Elite Prime Network or from non-participating dentists without the need to select a primary care dentist. You also do not need a referral to receive care from a specialty dentist, making it easy to get the oral care you need when you need it.

Not only will you have excellent access to participating dentists, but you can also get a discount on services not covered in your plan, such as teeth whitening (just look for the green SAVE icon in your search results when using our Find-a-Dentist online tool).
