Posterior composites are an optional benefit and must be selected by the employer in order to be included in the patient’s plan.

When you participate with Delta Dental, if your fee or a service exceeds Delta Dental’s maximum plan allowance, participating dentists agree to write-off any difference and not charge the remaining balance to the patient.

By signing the contract to participate with Delta Dental of Wyoming, you also agree to see patients who have coverage through other Delta Dental Member Companies nationwide.

As a participating dentist,

1. You have the convenience of submitting claims and checking claim status online,
2. You are eligible for electronic funds transfer,
3. We will send payments directly to you based on your fees or Delta Dental’s maximum allowance,
4. We will include your name in the participating dentist directory available to all groups and members covered by Delta Dental of Wyoming,
5. Your name will be listed in Delta Dental’s national directory of participating dentists.

Submitting a monthly claim for orthodontics is not necessary. Normally, the claim is filed for the entire treatment, and Delta Dental will set up the orthodontic case on an automatic payment schedule. Payments will be sent out on a bi-annual schedule until treatment is completed, terminated, or the patient is no longer eligible.

No, a participating Delta Dental provider is not required to take write-offs on procedures that are excluded by the patient's dental plan. If you have questions regarding this policy or if you have questions about a specific patient's benefits and whether a specific procedure is covered, please call us at 307-632-3313 or toll free at 1-800-735-3379.

Under most plans, your patient will still receive benefits, but he or she may have more out-of-pocket expenses and the Delta Dental payment will go directly to the patient.
