What dental benefits are available in the Aetna Open Access HMO Plan?
You have two different dental options, Basic Dental or Dental PPO, from which to choose. New members are automatically enrolled in the Basic Dental option. With the Basic Dental, simply select a participating primary care dentist (PCD) and call Member Services at 1-877-459-6604 to register your selection.
