What MetLife dental typically covers

Coverage varies by employer, but most MetLife PDP plans cover preventive visits (exams, cleanings, X-rays) at a high percentage, basic care such as fillings at a moderate percentage, and major care such as crowns, dentures and implants at a lower percentage up to your annual maximum. We confirm the details for your plan in writing.

What to bring to your first visit

  • Your MetLife member ID card, or the subscriber’s name and date of birth
  • A photo ID
  • A list of your medications
  • Any recent X-rays from another dentist, which we can request for you

Use it before it resets

Most MetLife dental plans renew January 1. Unused cleanings and annual maximums don’t carry over, so book before year-end to use what you’ve already earned.

What Our Patients Say

★★★★★
“I was a patient of Dr. Herb Casalena for over 25 years. I recently visited his office and met his replacement and could not have been happier or more impressed. She got me out of pain and took care of my issues promptly. I am certain that Herb would be very proud of her and happy that she is here to treat his patients.”

★★★★★
“I’ve been a patient of Dr. Casalena’s for over 20 years, so I’m grateful he left us in the hands of another excellent dentist. The transition went smoothly, and the office still feels like the same familiar place with the same welcoming team. My procedure went very well (was very scared) and healed nicely. The painless injections helped reduce my anxiety.”
Amy S. · Casalena Patient · 20 Years · Google Review
★★★★★
“The staff are nice and professional and so are the dentist and hygienist. I thank them for being patient also, getting your mouth worked on is an experience, but everything was great.”
