The benefits of in-network-only care
The Aetna Dental EPP Plan offers coverage for in-network-only care. This means there’s no coverage for providers who are outside the Aetna® network.* And the plan offers benefits for both your oral health and your wallet:
- Quality care In-network dental providers must meet strict quality measures to join the Aetna network. This means better care for you and your family.
- No-cost preventive care The Aetna Dental EPP Plan covers two routine exams and two cleanings per year, plus routine X-rays at 100% with no deductible. These services help keep your teeth and gums healthy and contribute to your overall health.
- Lower costs In-network dental providers bill based on the Aetna contracted rates, which are typically lower than non-contracted rates. This reduces your out-of-pocket amount and stretches your annual maximum benefit.
*Except for emergencies. Please review your plan documents for specifics about out-of-network emergency coverage.
Note: The Aetna Dental EPP Plan is not available in Hawaii or Puerto Rico. Learn which dental plans are available in your location by checking the resources listed below.
