Delta Dental has always made it easy for enrollees to receive dental
care here in the United States. Now our Passport Dental program
makes it easy to receive dental care almost everywhere in the world!
With Passport Dental, Delta Dental enrollees can receive expert dental care when they are outside of the United States through the AXA Assistance worldwide network of dentists and dental clinics.
What dental services are covered
Most Delta Dental enrollees (see below for more information) can
receive dental treatment for both non-emergency and emergency care
through Passport Dental, according to the terms of their existing
Delta Dental coverage.
However, it is important to note that AXA Assistance dentists are not Delta Dental participating dentists. This means enrollees who are covered under any Delta Dental program that limits their coverage when they see a nonparticipating dentist will have limited coverage when they see an AXA Assistance dentist.
How to receive dental assistance Outside the United States:
When calling from outside the United States, contact an operator and request a collect call to (312) 356-5971. Identify yourself as a Delta Dental enrollee to the AXA Assistance representative. Operators are available 24.7.
Inside the United States: Call (888) 558-2705.
How to submit a claim
When services are provided by AXA Assistance dentists, enrollees must pay for their treatment and get a detailed receipt so they can submit a claim to Delta Dental for reimbursement when they return to the United States.
Receipts should include:
The dentist’s name and address (including country)
A description of the services performed (including what tooth
and/or teeth were treated)
The charges and whether those charges were billed in U.S.
dollars or local currency
Once claims are submitted to us, we will reimburse enrollees according
to the terms and conditions of their existing Delta Dental coverage.
In most cases, that means both emergency and routine treatment will
be covered.
