How to Verify Your MetLife Dental Benefits

Visit metlife.com/mybenefits or call the member services number on your MetLife ID card. Ask for your plan's Maximum Plan Allowance for implants (D6010, D6057, D6058), your remaining annual maximum, and whether a missing-tooth clause applies. Our treatment coordinators submit predetermination of benefits at no cost — call (628) 286-9012 or book online below.

What MetLife Dental Typically Does NOT Cover

Honest transparency about exclusions helps you plan your budget and avoid surprises.

  • Implants for teeth missing before MetLife plan enrollment (missing-tooth clause on individual plans)
  • Cosmetic elective upgrades not functionally necessary
  • Implant placement during any applicable waiting period
  • Services not pre-authorized when MetLife requires it
  • Charges above MetLife's Maximum Plan Allowance (MPA)

These exclusions apply to most standard MetLife plans. Your employer group plan may differ. Our treatment coordinator will verify your specific exclusions before treatment.
