Understanding PPO dental plan benefits
You can choose from many different kinds of dental plans, but Preferred Provider Organizations (PPO) are by far the most popular. In fact, more than 80% of dental insurance plans are PPOs.1
So why have PPO plans emerged as the popular and smart choice? Because PPO plans offer clear advantages as suggested below.
A PPO plan can save you more money.
Insurance companies develop a network of dentists who agree to charge you fees that are lower than their usual rates. Those
discounts are the deepest when you visit a PPO network dentist.
You have options and flexibility.
A PPO plan will offer you a variety of choices from a network of dentists. You also have the flexibility to visit any licensed dentist – even out-of-network dentists— but you can maximize your savings and benefits by visiting a PPO network dentist who has agreed to lower fees. In other words, your out-of-pocket expense is much less.
There are more advantages.
In addition to better health, greater savings and more choice and flexibility, with the Delta
Dental PPOTM network:
Patients can save more than 35% on average by visiting a Delta Dental PPO network dentist compared to the fee the dentist would typically submit for a claim.5
You know you will receive quality care because all dentists in our network are credentialed to make certain they meet or exceed our requirements.
Claims payments go directly to in-network dentists, so you don’t have to pay the full cost upfront at the dental office and then wait to be reimbursed by the insurance company later.
You won’t be balance billed by visiting a dentist in the Delta Dental PPO network. No balance billing means a dentist cannot bill for the difference between their regular fees and the amount they’ve agreed to charge patients in the network.
Delta Dental’s PPO network is one of the nation’s largest, with more than 112,000 dentists participating in over 278,000 locations nationwide.6 This not only gives you a great selection of qualified dentists to choose from, but increases the likelihood that your dentist already participates in the network. You can easily find a dentist now in the Delta Dental networks.

What’s the value of dental insurance?
Guardian
Guardian
We care about protecting more than your teeth
Guardian makes it easy for members to access quality preventive dental care because of its clear connection to overall health, as well as the savings gained by avoiding major services and dental procedures down the line. With good oral care, people are 67% less likely to have heart disease, 50% less likely to have osteoporosis, and 29% less likely to have diabetes8.
How dental insurance works
Compared to medical insurance, it can be easier to understand dental insurance policies. Most policies are straightforward and specific regarding what procedures are covered and exactly how much you pay out-of-pocket.
You can typically save on costs if you use an insurer’s network of dentists. Guardian has more than 120,000 providers in our nationwide network. That means if you already have a dentist you love, they likely take one of our policies.
