Most employees have three dental PPO options to choose from: Dental Care Plus, Dental Care, and Preventive Care. All three plans are administered by Delta Dental. Similar to a medical PPO plan, the Delta Dental PPO plan options provide a higher level of benefit coverage when you visit an in-network dentist. Delta Dental offers covered employees several tools and resources, including the SmileWay Wellness Center.

You won't receive an ID card from Delta Dental but it isn't required to obtain services. However, if you wish, you can access and print an ID card on the Delta Dental website or register online and add the card to your digital wallet.

View the Annual Enrollment Guide for detailed information about the coverage available under each Delta Dental PPO option.

The Cigna DHMO Dental Care Access Plan (a dental HMO option) is available in some geographic areas. To view a list of participating providers, visit the Cigna's Find a Provider page and enter your address or zip code. If you enroll in this plan:

  • You must select a Cigna dentist that participates in the Cigna DHMO Dental Care Access Plan Network.
  • You won't receive coverage if you access care without a referral from your primary dentist.
  • You pay a copay and the plan pays the remainder.

Review the Cigna DHMO Dental Care Access Plan Patient Charge Schedule, which lists the benefits of the dental plan including covered procedures and patient charges.
