Find a network dentist
You may choose to see any in- or out-of-network dentist you’d like, but you’ll generally pay less when you stay in network. Out-of-network providers will typically have higher rates (costs) than those in-network, and if you choose to go out-of-network you will most likely need to pay up front then file a claim for reimbursement. Visit the Delta Dental website to find an in-network provider near you.

*Note: If you visit an out-of-network provider, you are responsible for any charges above the usual, customary and reasonable (UCR) limits. UCR limits for the PPO Standard High Plan are higher on average than the UCR limits for the PPO Low Plan.
- This means you will be responsible for a higher allowable amount on the Low Plan if you visit an out-of-network provider, including for Class I, diagnostic and preventive care (such as cleanings and X-rays). For any service, including those with 100% coinsurance, your provider may bill for an amount greater than allowable by Delta Dental. In this scenario, you will be responsible to pay for the difference between Delta Dental's allowable amount and the provider's bill.
- For both in- and out-of-network services, you may ask your dentist to submit a pre-treatment estimate before beginning treatment. Delta Dental will review and provide an estimate of your out-of-pocket cost.
- As a reminder, Delta Dental offers a broad network of providers and you can find one at https://www1.deltadentalins.com/.
Use your dental benefits wisely
Here’s how to make the most of your dental benefits:
Choose a network provider.
Each time you need dental care, you have a choice of providers. Selecting a Delta Dental participating dentist will ensure you receive the highest benefits from your plan. To find a provider, go to the Delta Dental website.
Present your plan identification.
Give your provider's office the information they need to bill your insurance. The group number is 21412 and your member number is your Social Security number. The plan is through Delta Dental of California.
Submit for a pretreatment estimate.
You should submit a request for a pre-treatment estimate for procedures and services your dentist believes will exceed $300 (procedures such as crowns, inlays, bridges, and periodontics). For more information, call Delta Dental at (888) 643-3110 or visit the Delta Dental website.
Check your claim status.
You can review Explanation of Benefits (EOB) statements, check if claims have been paid, and more on the Delta Dental website.
