Find providers

Check with your dental provider to see if they are in the plan's network and group number. Make sure you correctly identify your dental plan's network and group number. You can call the dentist, the dental plan's customer service, or use the dental plan's online directory.

DeltaCare: You may only see providers in the DeltaCare (Group 3100) network. You'll have a primary care provider who oversees your care, and authorizes specialist referrals. If the provider you select is not in DeltaCare's Group 3100 network, you will be responsible for the costs.
Uniform Dental Plan: You may see any dental provider, but you'll usually pay less out-of-pocket if you go to a provider in the Delta Dental PPO Group 3000 network.
