Our Medicare Advantage plans include dental benefits.
Did you know Original Medicare doesn’t cover the cost of most dental care services? That’s why our Medicare Advantage plans come with dental benefits through MetLife, at no additional cost to you. And since MetLife’s Preferred Dentist Program is a dental PPO benefit, you can see any licensed dentist, in or out of the MetLife PDP Plus dentist network. However, you may face higher copays if you choose to see an out-of-network dentist.
Visit MetLife.com to find a participating provider.
What type of dental benefits do I need?
When choosing a plan, it’s important to think about the cost of comprehensive dental services versus preventive dental care.
Here’s what comprehensive dental coverage generally includes:
- Fillings, root canals and crowns
- Periodontics (scaling and root planing)
- Dentures and dental implants
- Oral surgery
Here’s what preventive dental coverage generally includes:
- Annual cleanings and exams
- Dental X-rays
Many Medicare Advantage plans from Baylor Scott & White Health Plan offer these dental benefits:
- $0 copay/oral exam
- $0 copay/X-ray
- $0 copay/diagnostic dental service
- $0 copay/dental cleaning
