Long before puberty, your teens probably banned you from their nighttime brush-and-floss ritual. Even though they are growing up, you still have opportunities to influence your teens’ behavior and help them develop good oral health habits that will benefit them for life.
Your teens may not thank you today, but someday you may be rewarded with a smile!
Delta Dental Patient Direct® could be just the thing. This is a membership program (not insurance), and is available to New Jersey residents who are over age 18 and don’t have dental insurance. When members visit a participating Patient Direct dentist, they pay no more than the fee specified in the Patient Direct fee schedule. (These reflect a discount off of the average fees submitted to Delta Dental of New Jersey by all of our participating dentists in all of our networks.) Most routine dental services, including braces and cosmetic services such as bleaching, are included in the program. Members are also eligible for vision care savings.
The Delta Dental of New Jersey Foundation works throughout New Jersey and Connecticut to promote dental care to the underserved, fund dental education programs, and support dental research. To date, our Foundation has awarded more than $9.7 million in our communities!
Our Foundation Facebook
page provides a closer look at the stories behind our contributions, including how one recent grant is helping students at an Irvington, NJ, school improve both grades and oral health.
