Delta Dental offers access to the largest nationwide network of dentists, comprehensive customer support, and innovative tools designed to simplify dental care management. 

Thanks to Delta Dental's extensive network, the vast majority of providers will remain in-network, so you can expect minimal disruption. While you have the flexibility to visit any dentist, choosing an in-network provider will help you maximize your dental benefits and minimize your out-of-pocket expenses. You'll also be able to use Delta Dental's MySmile online tool to find dentists, cost estimates, claims, and learn more about your benefits. 

The design of the Dental Plus Plan—including covered services and deductibles—is not changing. Here's an overview of the plan:

*Orthodontia benefits accrued under Premera will carry over to Delta Dental. The lifetime maximum won't reset as part of the transition.
