MetLife Coverage Availability & Fees

MetLife allows you to choose from one of their many affordable plans, but you will see, while reviewing your options, that their benefits among in-network dentists are similar:

  • 100% preventive treatment (i.e., dental exams, X-rays, dental cleanings, etc.)
  • 80% minor restorative treatment (i.e., tooth-colored fillings, simple tooth extractions, etc.)
  • 50% major restorative treatment (i.e., dental crowns, dentures, etc.)

There are key points that you should also remember when using your dental insurance to help lower your out-of-pocket costs:

  • The greatest way to save is to have your six-month dental checkups and cleanings each year, as they require little to nothing up front and will keep your oral health in better shape.
  • Your dental benefits will likely expire at the end of the year, so make sure to use your available funds before December 31.
  • Your benefits cannot roll over to the following year. If you don’t use the money provided to you by your insurance company, it will go back to them when the new year starts.
  • You must meet your deductible before your dental insurance company will pay more for your preventive or restorative treatment.
