Defining Delta Dental: We’re Not a Dentist’s Office

December 10, 2015 Delta Dental of Idaho

 

Who are we? Learn more about the company behind the green delta:

“Can I schedule an appointment?”

“You’re a dentist’s office, right?”

“Where are you located?”

We’ve heard it all before. Not everyone knows what Delta Dental does or how we commit ourselves to your oral and overall health. But we hope to change that!

So what is Delta Dental? Here’s what you need to know:

• We Sell Dental Benefits

In 1954, a group of dentists met to discuss how to better improve the oral health of the communities they served. They became the first organization to specialize in dental coverage, serving members in California, Oregon and Washington. In 1966, the group expanded its coverage and formed the Delta Dental Plans Association (DDPA).

• There Are 39 Delta Dental Companies

In other words, Delta Dental of Idaho is not just “Delta Dental” — we’re our own company! DDPA is comprised of 39 independent member companies, serving all 50 states, Washington D.C. and Puerto Rico. Together we serve nearly 60 million people from 93,000 companies or organizations. Learn more about the coverage we provide in Idaho.

• We’re a Not-for-Profit 

We’re investing millions into making good oral health a standard! In 2014, our member companies collectively donated $43 million to support organizations with our shared mission. Learn what Delta Dental of Idaho is doing for the community.

We’re proud to be a part of your community. Contact us today to learn how we can keep you smiling!
