MetLife Coverage Availability & Fees

MetLife offers a variety of dental insurance plans, each of which has its own set of benefits and terms. We advise you to carefully review your individual policy so you can understand both its advantages and its limitations. In the meantime, here are some general insights into the coverage that is often available through MetLife PPO plans:

  • Most MetLife plans offer full coverage for preventive services, including dental examinations, cleanings, and standard X-rays.
  • Coverage for basic restorative procedures, such as dental fillings, may reach up to 80%.
  • Major dental work, which can include bridges, crowns, and dentures, is often covered at 50%.

Additionally, you should note that your plan might involve fees and other stipulations. For instance, you are likely subject to a deductible, a waiting period, and an annual maximum. If you have questions about what these things mean or how they might affect your financial obligation, you can talk to our team or contact your benefits provider.

The Benefits of Seeing an In-Network Dentist

Although a PPO plan gives you the freedom to visit any dentist, there are distinct advantages to choosing an in-network provider like Family Dental Practice of Bloomfield, including:

  • Lower out-of-pocket costs for many covered procedures. We have a contract with MetLife that manages fees and helps you save.
  • Higher coverage percentages than what you would get at an out-of-network practice.
  • Fewer billing surprises and clearer cost estimates. You can expect the process of using your benefits to be straightforward and simple.
  • Support from a team that is used to working with MetLife and who can guide you through every step of using your benefits, from getting preauthorization to filing claims and more.
