How Your MetLife Coverage Works Here

MetLife dental plans cover a wide range of preventive, restorative, and cosmetic treatments. Every plan is different, so before any treatment begins, our team verifies your specific MetLife benefits — what’s covered, your deductible, and your expected cost — so there are no surprises.

  • We accept MetLife PPO dental plans.
  • Texas Medicaid is accepted for children only.

We do not accept DMO or HMO dental plans, including MetLife DMO/HMO plans. Self-pay pricing and financing are available if your plan isn’t accepted.

How It Works

Getting your benefits verified is simple.

1. Bring Your Insurance Card

Bring your MetLife card to your appointment, or call ahead so our team can start the process.

2. We Verify Your Benefits

We’ll confirm exactly what your plan covers — and your expected out-of-pocket cost — before any treatment begins.

3. Receive Your Care

Dr. Patel, Dr. Vu, or Dr. Pruneda provides your treatment with your coverage already confirmed, so there are no surprises.
