Plan Details: 

MetLife Dental Overview

Faculty and staff have two MetLife plan choices:  Dental Standard and Dental Plus.  MetLife’s Preferred Dentist program allows you the flexibility to visit a provider in-network or out-of-network.  If you decide to see an in-network (participating) dentist, your benefit will be higher and you will pay less.  You can also see an out-of-network provider but you will receive a lesser benefit and pay more.

To find a participating dentist check online at www.metlife.com/info/cornell/ or call 800-942-0854; Service Center Hours: M-F 8:00 am to 11:00 pm EST.

For a detailed overview of MetLife's dental coverage, including limitations, exclusions, and orthodontia coverage information, please refer to the chart below or review the 2025 Dental Benefits Guide Booklet (coming soon).
