Dental Plan
The Dental Plan (PDP) is administered by MetLife and offers access to in and out-of-network providers for dental services such
as cleanings, preventive services as well as basic and major services. A comparison of the two plan options is noted below.
Always keep in mind that in-network services/providers will save you money and offer a large network to choose from. All plan
grids are available online on MetLife’s website www.metlife.com/insurance/dental-insurance/.

Reimbursement for out-of-network services is based on the lesser of the dentist’s actual fee or the Maximum Allowable Charge (MAC). The out-of-network Maximum Allowable
Charge is a scheduled amount determined by MetLife. This applies to Basic Restorative services for both plans. This also applies for Major Restorative services for the High Plan.
