Dentist That Accepts Principal Dental Insurance in Ventura

Principal Dental is underwritten by Principal Life Insurance Company, part of the Principal Financial Group, a Fortune 500 financial services company headquartered in Des Moines, Iowa.

• Plan type: Principal primarily offers PPO (Preferred Provider Organization) dental plans, available in all 50 states. Pre-paid and DHMO designs are available in select states.
• How it works: You can see any licensed dentist, but you save more when you visit an in-network provider. In-network dentists agree to negotiated rates, which lowers your out-of-pocket costs.
• Employer-sponsored: Most Principal dental plans are offered through an employer’s benefits package. Your employer selects the plan design, including the deductible, coinsurance percentages, and annual maximum, which is why two people with Principal insurance may have different coverage levels.
• Dependents: Coverage is generally available for employees and their dependents up to age 26.
• Keeping coverage active: Since this is an employer benefit, coverage typically continues as long as you remain employed and enrolled during open enrollment periods. If you change jobs, COBRA continuation may be available, check with your HR department for details.
