Take Advantage of Your Dental Benefits

It's important to use your dental benefits because your oral health is connected to your overall health. Your dentist can spot early signs of heart disease, diabetes and other diseases. Make preventive dental care a priority by visiting your dentist twice per year.

ProTip: When looking for a dental provider, make sure they meet your needs for things like location, hours and accepting your insurance. Ask for recommendations from friends, family and neighbors to help find a provider that is the right fit for you.

The dental office will need your Denver Health Medical Plan, Inc. health plan ID. This usually starts with an MA or a 70000. If your ID starts with 70000, the dentist needs to add a leading 0 to the ID so they can find you. If they cannot find your account, they can contact Delta Dental of Colorado at 1-800-610-0201.

Dental benefits vary by plan. Review your Evidence of Coverage, or call Delta Dental of Colorado at 1-800-610-0201 to see if a service is covered. All members receive 2 cleanings and 1 fluoride treatment per calendar year at in-network dental providers.
