Delta Dental – Newbury Park, CA
Learn More About the Benefits of Delta Dental
Healthy teeth and gums are important for more than just a beautiful smile because your oral and overall wellness are connected. Brushing and flossing can keep preventable dental problems at bay, but they aren't enough to keep your mouth healthy. You also need to see a dentist regularly. You don't have to worry about a large bill when choosing a Delta Dental dentist in Newbury Park. Our office accepts Delta Dental PPO and Delta Dental Premier, allowing you to benefit from reduced rates for the services you need for a healthy smile.
Delta Dental Coverage Availability & Fees
Dental insurance differs from medical coverage because it places a stronger emphasis on prevention. Your premiums give you access to a nationwide network of dental professionals. Delta Dental will cover some of the costs for the services you need to achieve optimal oral health. Every policy differs, but most include:
- 100% of preventive dental services
- 80% of basic dental work
- 50% of major dental services
A co-payment allows you to visit your dentist every 6 months for a cleaning and checkup. Delta Dental will cover 100% of the costs for preventive dental services. Your dentist can help stop common oral health problems from occurring, so you're less likely to need dental work later. This is an investment because researchers have found that every $1 of preventive care can save up to $50 on restorative and emergency fees.
However, if your dentist finds anything concerning, don't panic. Delta Dental will cover some of the expenses for medically necessary services, including fillings, dental crowns, tooth extractions, and much more. After meeting your annual deductible, Delta Dental will pay some of the expenses until reaching your yearly limit.
Delta Dental recommends choosing a dentist in their network to benefit from more coverage. They have pre-negotiated rates for specific services to lower the amount you pay out-of-pocket. However, you can still use your insurance at an out-of-network dentist, but Delta Dental may cover less of the expenses.
We are proud to accept both in-network and out-of-network patients. We will help you utilize your benefits to invest in healthy teeth and gums. Unfortunately, your dental coverage does not last forever. Your benefits will reset at the end of the calendar year, and you'll lose anything you have not used. You will not be reimbursed for your premiums or deductibles.
With billions of dollars lost in unused dental benefits every year, we don't want to see you throw money down the drain.
