2021 Dental plans (for Medicare and non-Medicare eligible retirees)
Aetna Dental® Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) Plan - stand-alone dental plan
Under the PPO dental plan, you may choose at the time of service either a PPO participating dentist or any nonparticipating dentist. If you select a participating dentist, savings are possible because the participating dentists have agreed to provide care for covered services at negotiated rates. Nonparticipating benefits are subject to usual and prevailing charge limits, as determined by Aetna.
