FAQ: Can I find out what my treatment will cost before I have it?

Yes, your dentist can submit a pre-treatment estimate, or pre-determination of benefits, of your proposed treatment plan to Delta Dental. We will process it and send your dentist an Explanation of Benefits that shows what would be covered and how much you would have to pay.

Please keep in mind that although a pre-treatment estimate may state Delta Dental will pay a certain amount for a procedure, it is not a guarantee of payment, as circumstances may change (e.g.: your annual maximum could be met between the date the pre-treatment estimate was submitted and the actual date the service was performed; your coverage could be changed or terminated; you may obtain treatment from a different dental office).
