What about your dental benefits? How do they work when you’re far from home?
Fortunately, most of our dental plans allow you to visit a dentist anywhere in the country and receive the same benefits you would receive at home. Make sure to check your Delta Dental member handbook carefully for exclusions on this policy. If you’re a Delta Dental of Virginia subscriber, you can find your member handbook on our secure subscriber website.
