Dental Plans
Below, you will find an overview and comparison of the dental plans we offer. To learn more, we encourage you to read our 2026 Open Enrollment guide, visit the websites for Delta Dental and Cigna Dental, or watch our educational videos on our Retiree Video page.
Plans Available:
- Delta Dental High Plan Option
- Delta Dental Low Plan Option
Our dental PPO plans let you visit any licensed dentist, but you will save the most money if you see an in-network dentist. Services received from an out-of-network dentist may incur higher out-of-pocket costs. With more than 3,700 network dentists in Arizona and 150,000 network dentists nationwide, it's easy to find the right dentist for your family!

Plan Available:
- Cigna DHMO
Cigna's Dental Health Maintenance Organization (DHMO) plan on the Cigna Dental Care Access Plus Network offers you no deductibles or dollar limits and its care that is easy to use at a wallet-friendly price. You choose a network general dentist to manage your overall care, pay a fixedb portion of the cost per visit, and your plan picks up the rest. Remember, you won't be covered if you go to a dentist who is not in our network. Detailed procedure costs are outlined on your Patient Charge Schedule (PCS) which makes your coverage simple, straightforward forward, and transparent! (Plan not available in AK, ME, MT, NH, NM, ND, PR, SD, VI, VT, and WY.)
Open enrollment, healthcare, Medicare, non-Medicare, and dental videos are available 24/7 on the Retiree Video page for you to view at your convenience. They are self-paced with segmented navigation to allow you to watch, and re-watch, any part you desire. All aspects of open enrollment are covered, including medical and dental plan options.
