HARRISBURG, Pa., Sept. 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- United Concordia Dental now offers a new low-cost, customizable product in 21 states and has expanded the availability of two popular Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) products.
"As a dental solutions company focused on wellness, we offer innovative and cost-effective benefit plan options for employers and members," said James Bramson, D.D.S., chief dental officer. "Our new and existing products are backed by a strong national network of dentists that continues to grow, delivering greater access to high-quality care."
