Our Networks
The Delta Dental Network Advantage
Delta Dental of Virginia members have access to the largest network of dentists in Virginia and nationwide*. We offer two networks: Delta Dental PPO™ and Delta Dental Premier®. Plus, we offer plans that give members access to both of our networks.
The Dual Network Safety Net
Delta Dental gives your employees an added benefit that other carriers can't offer — our dual network safety net. Certain PPO plans allow employees to visit a Delta Dental Premier dentist at a slightly higher out-of-pocket cost. Plans that offer both networks include: Delta Dental PPO plus Premier™, Delta Dental PPO aXcess and Delta Dental PPO Choice.
Your employees' network options will depend on their plan, which appears in the upper right-hand corner of their ID card (as pictured below).
Delta Dental PPO
