MetLife Dental Plan
It’s important to have regular dental exams and cleanings so problems are detected before they become painful — and
expensive. Keeping your teeth and gums clean and healthy will help prevent most tooth decay and is an important part of
maintaining your overall health. We offer a dental plan through MetLife.

Using dental providers
The listed network percentages represent the portion of MetLife’s maximum allowable charges (MACs) for which the plan
will be responsible. In-Network providers agree to accept MetLife’s MAC for covered services as payment in full and also
agree to file claims for you. If you or your family members receive services from an Out-of-Network provider, MetLife will
apply the percentages shown above to the Out-of-Network reimbursement for covered services and you will be responsible
for the difference, up to the provider’s charge. MetLife standard exclusions and limitations apply.
