Smile First is In-Network with Guardian and we would love to see you on your next visit!
Dental PPO and Dental HMO
| Dental PPO: More dentist choice | Dental HMO: Less dentist choice |
| Like a PPO health insurance plan, these dental plans typically have an extensive network of providers that lets you “shop around” and see out-of-network dentists. But when you stay in-network, you typically pay less and don’t need to submit claims. Is your dentist in Guardian’s network? Find out here. | These dental plans tend to offer lower premiums, but there’s also less flexibility with a limited network of providers. Like HMO health care plans, members choose Primary Dentists and have to go through them for all their care, including specialist referrals. Many DHMO dental plans have no deductibles or maximums – and while there may be a flat-rate copayment for non-preventive treatments, your overall costs will likely be lower. |
