2009 HealthPartners Dental
Affordable, comprehensive dental coverage
For all of your dental needs, HealthPartners offers the largest dental PPO network in the state. And more dentists mean deeper discounts, and that translates to lower out-of-pocket costs for you.

Your plan includes:
  • New this year! The option for you to see any network dentist or specialist at any time – with no referrals or primary clinic selection.
  • A nationwide network of 33,000 dentists at more than 74,000 locations.
  • The same great network dentists youve already been seeing, including the nationally-respected HealthPartners Dental Group clinics. That means you can continue seeing your same dentist!
  • Orthodontic discount of 20 percent on services at Orthodontic Care Specialists, Ltd. With average orthodontic discounts running about $5,000, you can save $1,000 or more!
