Providers, Partnership and Possibilities

Leading tier members of Delta Dental’s Provider Advisory Council (PAC) gathered in Scottsdale, Arizona to connect, collaborate and shape the future of dentistry this year from 3/11-3/14. 

This annual event brings together a representative group of Delta Dental providers and dental professionals, creating a dynamic forum where your voices are heard and represented, and key industry topics are explored alongside Delta Dental’s leadership.

Over three impactful days, attendees participated in:
 

• Updates on Delta Dental’s progress related to our purpose and vision by our CEO Sarah Chavarria
• Status on key programs and their results
• Small group sessions on Provider Tools improvements and collateral to educate patients
• Session on additional insights from a provider perspective – what else can we do?
   

Beyond the sessions, attendees had time to relax and experience the beautiful Arizona setting while enjoying activities that included local cuisine, live entertainment and opportunities to explore the area with fellow providers and Delta Dental leaders. Most attendees shared their highlight was exploring the Arizona desert with a walking tour and a bonfire dinner. 

We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to all the PAC members who attended the 2025 conference. This event helps channel our ongoing efforts for the rest of the year and strengthens our partnership with dental providers and their teams. One of our priorities this year is enhancing how we listen and respond to feedback, and the PAC continues to be a critical channel for that engagement.

Want to get involved?

On our two-year anniversary of the PAC’s founding, we’re excited to offer even more opportunities for providers to connect, collaborate and influence the direction of dental care. Applications to join the PAC will be opening again soon and we encourage any interested providers to get involved.
