Dental plans
You can enroll in the dental plan of your choice as a new hire, during Open Enrollment, or if you have a qualifying life event. Review your rates and enroll in UKG website.


Delta Dental PPO
Gives you the freedom to choose any licensed provider. However, you’ll save the most money when you see a provider within the network.


DeltaCare USA DHMO
Available nationwide. Works much like the medical HMO plans. You must select and use a primary care dentist (PCD) from the network to coordinate your care. There is no deductible or annual dental benefit maximum. If you use a dentist outside the network, you’re responsible for paying the full cost.

Coverage details

When you use in-network dentists, this is a percentage of lower, negotiated rates. If you use out-of-network dentists, this is a percentage of UCR limits, which are typically lower than negotiated rates. For all covered services with out-of-network dentists, you must also pay any amount over the UCR limit.

Additional fees may apply, please refer to the 2026 DeltaCare USA summary of benefits document for full details.
