Your Guide to Using Delta Dental at Green Family Dental
Understanding dental insurance can sometimes feel complicated, but it’s a powerful tool for maintaining your oral health without breaking the budget. Many of our patients at Green Family Dental are covered by Delta Dental, one of the nation’s most trusted insurance providers. We are proud to partner with them to make your dental care straightforward and affordable.
Located conveniently on Montwood near Yarbrough in East El Paso, our office is dedicated to helping you get the most out of your benefits. Let’s walk through what having a Delta Dental plan means for you and how our team can help.
What is Delta Dental?
Delta Dental is a leading dental benefits provider offering a range of plans to individuals and families. Their focus is on making high-quality dental care accessible and affordable. While every plan is different, they generally fall into two main categories.
Delta Dental PPO (Preferred Provider Organization)
PPO plans are popular because they offer great flexibility. You can choose to see any licensed dentist, but your savings are greatest when you visit an in-network provider like Green Family Dental. Because we have pre-negotiated rates with Delta Dental, your out-of-pocket costs are significantly lower.
Delta Dental DHMO (Dental Health Maintenance Organization)
DHMO plans require you to select a primary care dentist from within their network to oversee your oral health needs. These plans often feature lower premiums and fixed copayments for services, with no deductibles or annual maximums to worry about.
Key Benefits for Delta Dental Members
Using your Delta Dental plan comes with several important advantages:
- Strong Preventive Focus: Most Delta Dental plans cover preventive care—like cleanings, exams, and basic X-rays—at a very high percentage, often 100%.
- Large Provider Network: Delta Dental’s extensive network makes it easy to find a qualified, in-network dentist in your area.
- Predictable Costs: In-network dentists agree to set fees for services, which means you can better anticipate your expenses and avoid surprises.
