Dental

Dental coverage provides benefits for preventive care like exams and cleanings. It also covers basic and major restorative care. The Company offers you two dental options administered by Delta Dental of Illinois*, or you can decline coverage:
  • Core
  • Buy-up
Both options cover the same services, but the Buy-up option has a higher calendar year maximum — that is, the amount the plan will pay in one year — and covers orthodontia services. The following chart provides a summary of your dental coverage.

Delta Dental networks

While you can visit any general or specialty dentist, you pay less for care when you use a provider in one of the Delta Dental networks — Delta Dental PPO and Delta Dental Premier — with deeper discounts when you use a Delta Dental PPO network dentist. Average discounts range from 15% to 35% for the Delta Dental PPO network and 5% to 10% for the Delta Dental Premier network.
