NWMLS Dental Plans
NWMLS has several great options for both groups and individuals.
Individuals
Option 1: Delta Dental. Delta is the most popular plan in our state because it is the most flexible with it's large choice of dentists and group-like benefits.
Delta Dental offers plans similar to group sponsored plans and their provider list is the largest in the state (and nation). Their Enhanced Plan offers great benefits with a $1000 max, but we recommend the Premium Plan which features a $2000 annual max, $100 lifetime deductible, three cleanings per year and coverage for implants and dentures. People like Delta because they can keep their dentist and have really top tier benefits.
Option 2: Willamette Dental is a very affordable plan with fantastic benefits and year-round enrollment. Willamette Dental has a handful of company owned clinics where care must be received which means you will be changing dentists if you choose Willamette. These clinics receive great reviews.
Group Plans
Group Dental plans offer great benefits and pricing. If only insuring 2-3 employees but you are wanting great group benefits and pricing you will likely be best served with the Individual Plan Option 1, United Healthcare. Starting with 3 employees (or owners) a small group plan from may serve you better. The NWMLS has an arrangement with several carriers, it's easy to get details and a quote.
