What you're signing up for
A quick look at the fine print so there are no surprises.
Delta Dental Patient Direct is not an insurance program. It is a discount program. Enrollees in the Patient Direct program receive discounts on dental services provided in-office by an Arizona dentist in the Patient Direct network. Patient Direct members also receive special discounts from our partners, such as savings on vision care.
Because taking care of your health shouldn’t break your budget or be a hassle. Patient Direct gives you instant discounts on things like cleanings, fillings, even braces or teeth whitening. There’s no insurance paperwork, no claims to file and no limit to how often you can use it.
It’s flexible, affordable and designed to work around your life. Plus, you also get deals on vision care (yep, glasses and contacts too!). It’s the easiest way to save on dental and vision care while you’re in school.
Signing up online takes less than 5 minutes and you’ll be able to save a digital ID card when you’re done! You can take advantage of the Patient Direct discounts starting the 1st of the month after you enroll. If you still have questions or prefer to sign up by phone, you can call 866.327.0041 to speak to an enrollment specialist.
Nope! There are no waiting periods and no limits on how often you can use your discount. As soon as your plan is active, you’re good to go. You and your dentist decide what care you need—no restrictions, no delays.
Finding a Patient Direct dentist is easy! Just use our online dentist search tool to search for an Arizona Patient Direct dentist near you!
Although you may be able to search for out-of-state dentists in the Patient Direct network, Delta Dental of Arizona’s Patient Direct program discounts are only available when you visit an Arizona Patient Direct dentist.
Pretty much, yeah. If your dentist is in the Patient Direct network, you’ll get at least 20% off most in-office treatments—cleanings, fillings, teeth whitening even cosmetic stuff like veneers.
Want to see exactly what’s included? We’ve got a quick chart that breaks it down for you.
Yep! Patient Direct comes with vision perks through EyeMed so you can save on eye exams, glasses, contacts, even LASIK. Basically, clearer vision without draining your bank account.
Easy! You can pay your annual fee with a credit card, bank transfer (EFT), or check. If you signed up with a card or EFT, you’re probably on auto-pay already. But if you need to update anything, like your payment method or billing info, just log in to the member portal and you’re good to go.
Not totally anytime, but close. When you sign up, it’s a 12-month membership. If you change your mind in the first 3 days, you can cancel and get a full refund. After that, you can still cancel with 30 days’ notice.
Want all the fine print? It’s in the Participant Agreement.
Just a few things to keep in mind:
You have to show your Patient Direct ID card before your appointment to get the discount
You'll pay your dentist or eye doctor directly. How and when depends on what you both agree to.
