Cigna PPO
Is Van Nuys Panorama Dental Center in-network with Cigna?
Yes. Van Nuys Panorama Dental Center, at 8227 Van Nuys Blvd in Panorama City, CA, is an in-network dentist for Cigna PPO dental plans. That means you pay Cigna's agreed in-network fees, and our team verifies your coverage before your visit.
Cigna offers dental PPO plans through employers and to individuals and families. Cigna Dental PPO plans let you see dentists in Cigna's network and usually pay benefits outside it as well. Cigna also offers dental HMO plans, which work differently from a PPO.
Seeing an in-network dentist usually means lower out-of-pocket costs than going out of network, because Cigna and our office have agreed on fees in advance. Your exact share still depends on your plan's deductible, coverage levels and annual maximum, so we'll explain what to expect before treatment begins.
Tips for members
How do I get the most from my Cigna dental plan?
- 01Look for DPPO or PPO on your Cigna card. If it says Cigna Dental Care (DHMO), that's an HMO plan with its own rules.
- 02Many Cigna PPO plans cover routine cleanings and exams at a high percentage, so preventive care is often low cost.
- 03Ask us to check your annual maximum before larger treatment, so you can plan care across benefit years if that helps.

What PPO plans usually cover
What does Cigna PPO dental insurance typically cover?
Every Cigna plan is different, but most dental PPO plans group care into three levels. Your plan's benefits summary shows your exact percentages, deductible and annual maximum.
Preventive care
Exams, cleanings, X-rays, fluoride and sealants. Often covered at the highest percentage, sometimes 100%.
Basic care
Fillings, simple extractions and often deep cleanings. Usually covered at a lower percentage after your deductible.
Major care
Crowns and bridges, root canals on some plans, and sometimes implants. Often covered at about half, and may have waiting periods.
