What is American Dental Plan?
ADP, founded in 1978, is Arizona's oldest voluntary dental benefit plan. By purchasing a yearly membership, you gain access to a network of participating dental offices that provide the same quality dental services but at affordable and predictible prices. This dental plan is unique since there are no waiting periods, no claim forms, no pre-existing exclusions, no yearly maximums, no employment requirements or age restrictions. Enrollment is always open and available to the residents of Arizona.
ADP can be used as the primary dental benefit or can also be used in conjunction with traditional dental insurance to provide coverage during waiting periods, for services if you exceed the insurance yearly maximums, for un-insured family members as home (such as adult aged children), retirees, orthodontics or just about any procedure that is NOT covered by your existing dental insurance policy. (For more info, see our FAQ section.)
ADP encourages early detection & ongoing maintenance and offers a cost effective alternative to paying usual and customary fees or using managed care plans. In many instances, you will save enough money at your first dental visit to pay for your yearly membership!
Where are Services Obtained?
There are over 575 participating general and specialty dentists who participate throughout Arizona. Refer to the most current list of dental offices in Phoenix, Tucson, or the Rural Areas . This website will provide the location of each participating OFFICE that is accepting NEW patients. Many offices have more than one dentist and can schedule your appointment without delay. (There are also many participating offices who are only accepting existing patients at this time. These locations are not listed on this website but can be selected with permission from the participating dentist). You are free to choose any of these locations to receive your dental care. Should you decide to change dentists, you must first contact the Administrative Office to update your membership card and to be placed on the dentist's patient list.
| We are always adding new participating dentists to our network in Arizona. If your dentist is not listed, ask their office staff if they wish to participate and we can forward a provider packet without obligation. |
How do I receive Dental Services?
Upon enrollment, you are able to call the dental office for your appointment. Then, just pay the dentist directly for all services provided. The amount you pay is clearly listed on the most recent fee schedule. Please be aware that you will be charged an additional $10 at each dental appointment to pay for gloves, masks and increased sterilization techniques as required by OSHA. Your permanent ID card will be delivered by US mail within a few days of enrollment.
What Services Do I Receive?
Each membership year, you will receive an examination* and your first 4 x-rays at no charge! (some dentists may require more than just 4 x-rays). Additional dental services including cleanings, fillings, extractions, root canals, crowns and dentures, (and orthodontics!) are available at substantial savings from the latest fee schedule, (Phoenix Metro and Tucson, Rural Areas, Orthodontics) . Also, it is not necessary to obtain a referral before seeing a Specialist. Just call the dentist to schedule your appointment.
*(Situations may exist whereby your initial examination is considered more comprehensive and, therefore, is charged in accordance with the latest fee schedule. If you are charged for this initial exam, your second exam during your membership year will then be "No Charge".)
YOU WILL RECEIVE DENTAL SERVICES AT REDUCED RATES ONLY AT PARTICIPATING DENTAL OFFICES.
