Dental

Smile, you have dental coverage available through Dow. Keep your teeth and gums (and your family's, if applicable) healthy by choosing from one of the several options available.

  • Delta Dental Premier Basic Plus (Basic Plus) ― With this option, you pay less per paycheck, but may have higher costs when receiving non-preventive services. You have the flexibility to choose providers in or outside of the network, but you may end up paying more for out-of-network services. This plan does not include orthodontia.
  • Delta Dental PPO High ― This option will cost you more in paycheck contributions, but if you use a PPO dentist, you will likely have lower costs for non-preventive services (compared to the Basic Plus plan). You have the flexibility to choose providers in or outside of the network, but may end up paying more for out-of-network services. This plan includes orthodontia.
  • Dental Maintenance Organizations (DMOs) ― Offered through Aetna and Cigna in certain locations, DMOs provide another option for coverage. While you must receive dental care through network providers, you either pay no additional costs or a fixed-dollar copayment for most services.

Enhanced Delta Dental coverage is available to meet special health care needs: Includes additional visits, cleanings and treatment delivery modifications to ensure everyone feels good about the care they receive. Learn more.
