I have had Aetna dental health insurance for over three years now. They offer a great variety of different plans when it comes to dental coverage and price. I will continue to be a loyal Aetna member in the future because of how good their coverage extends and how many offices actually take them as insurance. It is truly the best dental health insurance.

They are honestly as bad as Isis You can pay your entire amount for a dental fee through premiums. They cover about half of what they claim they do. Highly recommend putting your money in the bank for the next big thing you have to do. They are about as useful as Water in a flood. I have literally had to pay more out-of-pocket then if I just save my money

Delta is a company benefit but If I didn't have it we would have been responsible for several thousand $$ . Our new Dentist is not in the Delta Network but they still file everything for us & Delta has refunded us almost immediately. You don't even need an I.D. card just name & company affiliation and open wide.

Worst insurance company ever! They do not pay claims! I had a crown done that my dentist said I needed as I was having continuous pain. After my procedure, Delta Dental refused to pay there half. Someone sitting in a desk at Delta Dental said I didn't need my crown but they were not the one looking in my mouth to see what was needed. This insurance company is a joke! In my opinion , I would find insurance elsewhere.
The Final Word
If you're looking for dental insurance for you and your family, Delta Dental offers four different plans with different network and coverage structures. You can also find a fee-for-service and a dental discount plan. In contrast, Aetna only offers one dental insurance plan and a dental discount card membership.
Group dental plans are harder to compare because Delta Dental does not offer as much general information on its offerings as Aetna does. To learn more about Delta Dental plans in your area, you'll need to contact the insurer directly or visit the Delta Dental website for your state.
Aetna offers a nice selection of plan types that includes, DMO-, PPO-, PDN- network structures. Dental Maintenance Organizations (DMO) only covers in-network services. Preferred Provider Organizations (PPO) and Participating Dental Network (PDN) structures cover in- and out-of-network plans.
Delta Dental is the way to go for individual and family plans because of its selection. Aetna offers more clarity online regarding its employer-offerings, which edges it ahead of Delta Dental for those plans.
