MetLife Dental Implant Coverage
MetLife dental plans through employers range from preventive-only to comprehensive major coverage. Implant benefits are plan-specific.
Common MetLife Plan Patterns
- High option plans: 50% major, implants may be covered after waiting period
- Low option plans: Implants excluded — alternative benefits (bridge) only
- Orthodontia vs implant: Separate lifetime ortho max does not apply to implants
