Protect your smile.

A little prevention can go a long way.

Delta Dental of Virginia does more to promote preventive dental services because we understand that good oral health means positive overall health, too. We provide a variety of benefit options that reward you for being proactive and engaging in preventive dental care. To find out if you have these benefits available under your dental plan, log into your member dashboard or check with your employer. 

Right Start 4 Kids

Right Start 4 Kids

Right Start 4 Kids helps remove cost barriers to dental care for children by providing 100% coverage up to their 13th birthday for all covered services, excluding orthodontics, when they visit a participating dentist.* 

MaxOver

MaxOver™ rewards you for visiting your dentist for preventive exams and cleanings by allowing you to carry forward a portion of your unused annual maximum benefit allowance for future use. So, when you need a procedure that costs more than your plan’s annual maximum benefit, the funds in your MaxOver account can help meet the difference. 

MaxOver is not offered on all plans. For information specific to your dental plan, log in and review your member handbook.

Prevention First

Prevention First

Prevention First stretches your annual maximum benefit allowance by excluding costs for preventive care, such as X-rays, exams and cleanings, from your allowance. This makes more of your annual maximum available for other dental services throughout your plan year.
