Written by Smile Power Expert | Feb 23, 2023 9:18:47 PM

Make sure you know what to do if you need to add a trip to the dentist to your travel plans. Before vacationing, it’s always wise to brush up on your benefits, dental, medical and otherwise – so you’re prepared if you need to seek treatment on the go and out of state. Wherever your travels take you this summer, you’re most likely covered by your dental benefits plan. Delta Dental’s extensive dentist networks mean there are thousands of dental offices nationwide that provide the same level of benefits and services you receive at home.* 

Save the most by using an in-network dentist from the Delta Dental network

In-network dentists have agreed to pre-established fees for Delta Dental members. You’ll save the most by visiting a Delta Dental network dentist. 

No matter where you are in the U.S., you can locate an in-network dentist by using our Find a Dentist tool at deltadental.com or on our free mobile app. Simply type in a city or ZIP code to receive a list of nearby network dentists. There are more than 155,000 in-network dentists in the U.S., so there’s bound to be one close to where you are vacationing.

*Delta Dental PPOSM and Delta Dental Premier® allow you to visit any licensed dentist. Under the DeltaCare® USA plan, you usually need to visit a network dentist except when using out-of-area emergency benefits. Your plan may have an exception for emergency care. Confirm benefits, eligibility and network participation before visiting the dentist.
