For over 60 years it’s been our mission to provide high quality oral health care – and now vision care – for all Rhode Islanders. We accomplish that not just through our products, great people and service, but through our philanthropic efforts in the community. We’re especially proud of the impact we’ve made over the last year alone – from the more than $1 million we provided to clinics, academic institutions, local dentists, and other worthy organizations across the state, to the more than 1400 hours of volunteer time our employees gave to causes they believed in.

How can we help make you and your employees smile?
A healthy smile gives you confidence. It opens doors and knocks down walls and helps you get amazing things done. At Delta Dental of Rhode Island, our mission is to see you smile. It’s why we take great pride in ensuring access to high quality health care for so many Rhode Islanders – with more than 660,000 dental and vision members from Burrillville to Block Island and every city and town in between. From our members, to the people who receive care through Rhode Island Mission of Mercy and the many local clinics we support, you can smile your way to whatever greatness you want to accomplish today.
We’re not only proud to be the leading dental insurance company around here, we’re proud to be a part of the community for more than 60 years. That’s why 96% of members would recommend Delta Dental of Rhode Island to a friend or family member. And nothing makes us happier than making members like you smile.

As the healthcare industry has worked to navigate a nationwide shortage of workers, a large focus of Delta Dental’s community support has been placed on strengthening the statewide oral health sector’s talent pipeline, including a longtime partnership with the Community College of Rhode Island (CCRI). This year, we began the Delta Dental of Rhode Island scholarship, which gives financial support to students in CCRI’s Dental Hygiene Program who commit to working in Rhode Island’s oral health sector for at least one year after they graduate. We also provided funding to help renovate CCRI's on-campus oral health clinic, a facility that serves as a hands-on training space for CCRI students while providing free dental services for more than 1,000 Rhode Islanders every year.
Our people
Every day, we live our mission to provide high-quality health care to all Rhode Islanders. We work hard to provide the best service and the fastest answers for our members and client businesses.
With a team and leaders who are deeply committed to good business, good quality of work life and good work, it’s no wonder 44% of our employees have been with us for 10 or more years. Not to mention, Delta Dental of Rhode Island was named one of the Best Places to Work in RI by Providence Business News in 2023.
And then there’s our culture of giving back. Year after year, the people of Delta Dental find time to volunteer their talent, passion and expertise to over 100 organizations and causes that need a helping hand. In fact, in 2023, we were honored to have that commitment recognized by Rhode Island Monthly and the Rhode Island Foundation with a Common Good Award.
So many are behind all the bright, happy smiles here in Rhode Island.
Our providers
Delta Dental of Rhode Island has the largest network of dentists both in the state and nationwide. We’re proud to say that nine out of ten dentists in Rhode Island participate in our network, making it easy for you to get the dental care you need with an in-network dentist.
We’re also proud to say that 99% of our members are satisfied with the quality of their dental care, thanks to the great providers in our network. And our providers have some pretty big hearts, volunteering their time and talents to bring dental care to the people of Rhode Island who need it most, including statewide efforts like the RI Mission of Mercy. This annual two-day dental clinic provides treatment, at no cost, to hundreds in our area who are uninsured, underinsured, or can’t otherwise afford dental care.
