DPPO Plan
       This plan offers you the freedom and flexibility to use the dentist of your choice. However, you will maximize your benefits and reduce your out-of-pocket costs if
       you choose a dentist who participates in the Delta Dental PPO or Premier network. When you utilize a PPO or Premier dentist, your out-of-pocket expenses will be
       less, however, you will usually pay the lowest amount for services when you visit a Delta Dental PPO dentist. If you obtain services using a non-network dentist, you
       will be responsible for the difference between the covered amount and the actual charges and you may be responsible for filing claims. The chart below provides a
       high-level overview of your dental plan.

       Important
       We strongly recommend you ask for a predetermination of benefits if total charges are expected to exceed $300. Predetermination enables you and your dentist
       to know in advance what the payment will be for any services that may be in question.
