MetLife Dental Insurance Accepted at MDRN MUSE Dental Aesthetics in Chattanooga
Dr. Zack Youngblood
If you have MetLife dental insurance, you can use your benefits right here at MDRN MUSE Dental Aesthetics. We’re in-network with many MetLife PPO plans, which means lower out-of-pocket costs and maximized insurance benefits for your care.
Because every MetLife plan is different, coverage will vary. But this guide will give you a clear idea of what is typically covered so you can feel confident booking your visit.
What Does MetLife Dental Insurance Usually Cover?
Most MetLife dental PPO plans follow a simple coverage structure. While exact benefits vary, many plans cover:
Preventive Care (Often 100% Covered In-Network)
Preventive services are usually the most covered because insurance companies want to help you avoid bigger problems.
Common covered services:
- Dental exams
- Routine cleanings
- X-rays
- Fluoride (in some plans)
Many dental PPO plans cover preventive care at 100% when you visit an in-network dentist.
This means many patients pay little to nothing out of pocket for routine visits.
Basic Treatments (Usually 70–80% Covered)
If you need treatment beyond a cleaning, MetLife often helps significantly.
Common basic services:
- Tooth-colored fillings
- Simple extractions
- Emergency treatment (we offer same-day appointments and treatment -> Book Your Appointment Here)
- Deep cleanings (gum therapy)
Basic services are typically covered at about 70–80%, leaving a smaller patient portion.
Major Treatments (Often Around 50% Covered)
For more complex procedures, insurance usually contributes but does not cover the full cost.
Common major services:
- Crowns
- Root canals
- Implants (some plans)
- Dentures or bridges
Major dental procedures are often covered at approximately 50%, depending on your plan and annual maximum.
Orthodontics & Invisalign (Varies by Plan)
Some MetLife plans include orthodontic benefits for teens or adults.
Coverage may include:
- Braces or Invisalign
- Bite correction
- Retainers
Orthodontic coverage varies widely and is often around 50% with lifetime maximums, if included.

Why Seeing an In-Network MetLife Dentist Matters
When you visit an in-network MetLife dentist like MDRN MUSE:
- You receive contracted, lower insurance rates
- Your insurance pays its highest allowed amount
- You get clearer cost estimates before treatment
Most dental PPO plans are designed to reduce your costs when you stay in network.
What Your Dental Insurance Won’t Always Cover
Dental insurance helps significantly, but it doesn’t always cover everything.
Common limitations include:
- Annual maximums (often $1,000–$2,000/year)
- Waiting periods on major treatment (some plans)
- Cosmetic procedures like veneers
- Percentage-based coverage (not full coverage)
Most plans cover preventive care fully but only a percentage of basic and major treatment.
Our team always provides clear estimates so you know what to expect before treatment begins.
