Delta Dental of Massachusetts Dental Plans on Health Insurance Marketplace in Massachusetts

Delta Dental of Massachusetts has received certification as a Qualified Health Plan to offer stand-alone dental plans on the Health Insurance Marketplaces in Massachusetts. The plans offer a range of high-quality and affordable dental insurance options for individuals and families to enroll in between now and April 2014; coverage will begin on January 1, 2014.

It is not widely known, but dental disease is the most common chronic disease of childhood - five times more common than asthma – yet it is almost 100% preventable. Recognizing the need to increase access to dental care for children, the Affordable Care Act designated pediatric dental and vision services an essential health benefit.  Delta Dental of Massachusetts applauds the focus on dental as an essential health need and looks forward to providing affordable dental coverage to more through state marketplaces.
