My dependent is currently in his first year of orthodontia treatment, how will his treatment be affected by the transition from my current dental carrier to Deltacare USA (DHMO)?

If you have a dependent in his first year of treatment, his services will be considered as Orthodontics in Progress. If you transfer into a Dental HMO plan with Delta Dental (regardless of what plan type you had with the previous dental carrier), remaining Orthodontia services will be covered at a pro-rated monthly allowance until the number of months in treatment cease, up to 24 months of treatment, whichever comes first.
For more information and examples related to Orthodontics in Progress, view the DHMO Orthodontics in Progress Form.
