Compare Dental Plans

We offer two dental plans through MetLife: the PPO and the PPO Plus.

Both plans cover 100% of your preventive care costs, such as cleanings and X-rays. They also have the same low deductible of $50 for you or $150 for you and your family. The difference between these plans is the amount you pay for covered services after your deductible is met each year, as well as orthodontia coverage.

MetLife PPO

Costs and Tax-Free Savings

The plan pays 50% of the cost of basic and major care after you meet the deductible, up to $1,250 a year.
There is no coverage for orthodontia or dental implants.
The PPO plan pairs with any healthcare FSA or HSA for out-of-pocket expenses.
Visit a dentist of your choosing but pay less when you see a dentist in the Preferred Dental Program.

Check Premiums

The amount you pay for your dental plan per pay period depends on the plan you choose and the number of dependents you cover. Premiums are deducted from your paycheck before taxes, so you are not taxed on them.

What You Pay for Care

What you pay for dental care depends on the dental plan you choose and the number of dependents you cover. Both plans cover 100% of your preventive cleanings and X-rays (once every six months).
