Two networks to choose from:

- - Delta Dental PPO
    Dentists in this network typically charge less for covered services, and you will get the most savings.

- - Delta Dental Premier
    Dentists in this network may charge more for covered services than dentists in the PPO network. Services are covered at the same coinsurance, but you typically won鈥檛 save as much with a Premier dentist as you would with a PPO dentist.
