Coverage Details

Understanding your Delta Dental PPO insurance coverage is essential to making informed decisions about your oral health. We want you to be confident in your treatment, knowing exactly what to expect. Here’s a breakdown of how your PPO insurance typically covers dental services:

1. Preventive Care – 100% Covered

Preventive dental care is the cornerstone of maintaining long-term oral health. Fortunately, Delta Dental PPO plans often cover these services at 100%, meaning you can receive essential treatments without paying out-of-pocket. Some of the services that are typically covered include:

Regular Cleanings (twice a year) to remove plaque and tartar build-up, which helps prevent cavities and gum disease.
Comprehensive Dental Exams to detect any potential issues early, saving you from more complex treatments in the future.
Fluoride Treatments to strengthen tooth enamel, especially beneficial for children.
Dental Sealants to protect the chewing surfaces of molars from cavities.

These services are essential for maintaining healthy teeth and gums, and we encourage you to take full advantage of them as part of your regular oral care routine.

2. Basic Care – 70%-80% Coverage

When dental issues arise that go beyond preventive care, Delta Dental PPO plans generally cover 70%-80% of the cost for basic dental procedures. These treatments help address more common dental concerns and can include:

Fillings to restore teeth that have been affected by cavities.
Extractions to remove damaged or infected teeth that cannot be saved.
Scaling and Root Planing (deep cleaning) to treat gum disease and prevent it from progressing.

Before undergoing any basic dental treatments, we will provide you with a clear estimate of any out-of-pocket expenses, ensuring that you know what to expect.

3. Major Care – 50% Coverage

More complex dental treatments, such as those required for significant tooth damage or restoration, are generally covered at 50% under your Delta Dental PPO plan. These major procedures may include:

Crowns to restore severely damaged teeth.
Bridges to replace missing teeth.
Dentures for partial or complete tooth loss.
Root Canals to treat and save a severely infected tooth.

These treatments can be essential for preserving your oral health and restoring function, and we will help you understand the costs involved and guide you through the process.

4. Orthodontics – Partial Coverage with Lifetime Maximums

For patients interested in improving the alignment of their teeth, Delta Dental PPO plans may offer partial coverage for orthodontic treatments such as braces or clear aligners. However, orthodontic coverage typically comes with a lifetime maximum, meaning there’s a limit to the amount Delta Dental will pay for these treatments over the course of your life.

If you or your child is considering braces or other orthodontic treatments, we can help you explore your options and understand how much your plan will cover.

FAQs About Delta Dental PPO in Massachusetts

What is a PPO dental insurance plan?

A PPO (Preferred Provider Organization) plan offers flexibility by allowing you to choose any dentist, but you will pay less when you see an in-network provider like Clove Dental. This means we’ve agreed to discounted rates, making your dental care more affordable.

How often can I get a cleaning and exam?

Most Delta Dental PPO plans cover two cleanings and exams per year at 100%. These regular visits are vital for maintaining your oral health and preventing future dental problems.

What is an annual maximum, and how does it affect me?

An annual maximum is the total amount that Delta Dental will pay for your dental care within a calendar year. If you exceed this limit, you may be responsible for any additional costs. Our team will help you track your spending so you can plan accordingly.

Do I need to get approval for certain treatments?

Some treatments, especially major procedures like crowns or orthodontics, may require pre-authorization from Delta Dental. Don’t worry—we handle this process for you, so you don’t have to deal with the paperwork.

What happens if my treatment isn’t fully covered?

If your insurance doesn’t cover the full cost of treatment, we will work with you to explore payment options. We offer flexible financing and can discuss alternative treatments if necessary.
