What Our MetLife Patients Say

“My employer switched us to MetLife last year, and I was worried about finding a new dentist. Lamb Family Dental was already in-network, and they verified my benefits before I even walked in the door. Everything was seamless.”

, Ryan K., Meridian

“I have the MetLife PDP Plus plan through my company in Eagle. Dr. Pelletier explained every step of my crown procedure, and the front desk told me my exact cost before they started. I paid less than I expected.”

, Amanda S., Eagle

“I carry the MetLife TakeAlong plan because I am self-employed. It is nice to know that when I switch clients, my dentist does not change. Lamb Family Dental has been my dental home for six years, and the team always makes the insurance part easy.”

Frequently Asked Questions About MetLife Dental

Does Lamb Family Dental accept MetLife dental insurance?

Yes. Lamb Family Dental is an in-network MetLife dental provider in Boise, Idaho. We accept MetLife PDP, MetLife PDP Plus, and MetLife TakeAlong Dental plans. Our insurance team verifies your specific coverage before any appointment so you know exactly what to expect.

What is the difference between MetLife PDP and PDP Plus?

MetLife PDP (Preferred Dentist Program) is the standard PPO plan with the largest MetLife dental network. PDP Plus uses the same network but features negotiated lower fees, which means even greater savings at in-network offices like ours. Both plans offer the same 100-80-50 coverage structure, but PDP Plus members typically see lower out-of-pocket costs for procedures.

What is MetLife TakeAlong Dental?

MetLife TakeAlong Dental is a portable dental plan that stays with you even if you change jobs. Unlike employer-sponsored plans that end when you leave a company, TakeAlong is tied to you as an individual. It uses the same MetLife PDP network, so you get in-network rates at Lamb Family Dental regardless of your employment status.

How do I verify my MetLife dental benefits?

Call our office at (208) 344-6300 with your MetLife member ID and group number from your insurance card. Our insurance coordinator contacts MetLife directly and explains your coverage levels, deductible status, and estimated costs before your visit. You can also check your benefits online at metlife.com/dental.

What does MetLife dental cover?

Most MetLife dental plans follow a 100-80-50 structure. Preventive care like cleanings and exams is covered at 100 percent in-network. Basic procedures like fillings and root canals are covered at 80 percent after your deductible. Major work like crowns, bridges, and implants is covered at 50 percent. Annual maximums typically range from $1,000 to $2,500 depending on your plan.

How much is a cleaning with MetLife dental?

With most MetLife plans, a routine cleaning (D1110) is covered at 100 percent as preventive care. That means zero out-of-pocket cost to you when you visit an in-network provider like Lamb Family Dental. Most plans allow two cleanings per calendar year, and preventive visits typically do not count against your annual maximum.

What is the annual maximum on MetLife dental plans?

MetLife dental plan annual maximums typically range from $1,000 to $2,500 per person, depending on the plan your employer selected. PDP Plus plans often have higher annual maximums than standard PDP plans. We track your remaining benefits and help you plan treatment to make the most of your coverage each calendar year.

Does MetLife cover dental implants?

Many MetLife plans cover dental implants at the major procedure rate of 50 percent after your deductible. Some plans may have waiting periods for major work during the first year. We check your specific MetLife benefits and provide a written cost estimate before scheduling implant surgery so you know exactly what you will owe.

Does MetLife dental cover Invisalign?

Some MetLife dental plans include orthodontic benefits that can apply to Invisalign. Coverage is typically 50 percent up to a lifetime maximum of around $1,000 to $1,500. Orthodontic benefits may have age limits depending on your specific plan. Call us at (208) 344-6300 and we will verify your orthodontic benefits before you commit to treatment.

Is Lamb Family Dental accepting new MetLife patients?
