- VeneersYes! Arizona dentists in the Patient Direct network agree to give Patient Direct members a minimum of 20% off all dental treatments and services that are performed in their office. This includes services like teeth whitening, veneers, etc.
- CrownsAfter an examination, your dentist may recommend a treatment plan. If the services involve crowns, fixed bridgework, implants, partial or complete dentures, surgical removal of impacted third molars, or medically necessary orthodontic services, ask your dentist to send the treatment plan to DDAZ. The available coverage will be calculated and printed on a predetermination of benefits form. Copies of the form will be sent to you and to your dentist. Predetermination/Preauthorization of benefits is required for medically necessary orthodontic services and surgical removal of impacted third molars. The Preauthorization should be sent to DDAZ as early as possible. We typically decide on requests for prior authorization for services within 3 days of receiving an urgent request or within 15 days for non-urgent requests. If the required preauthorization is not received, your claim may be denied. A predetermination of benefits is not required for other services, however, DDAZ encourages you to use this service.
