The Texas A&M University System currently offers a choice between two dental plans.

A&M Dental is a PPO plan. It includes networks of dentists which can save you money. Most exams and procedures are paid on a percentage basis up to a plan maximum.

DeltaCare is an HMO plan. The plan offers fixed copayments for exams and procedures and you will choose a network dental provider. The HMO is not available in all areas and some areas have a limited number of providers.

Contact Delta Dental at 800-521-2651 or visit the website
