What is a participating PDP dentist?
A participating PDP dentist is a general dentist or specialist who participates in MetLife’s Preferred Dentist Program (“PDP”) who meets MetLife’s well-established credentialing standards and agrees to accept negotiated fees as payments-in-full for services rendered. When you visit a participating dentist, you are responsible only for the difference between what the plan benefit pays and the negotiated fee which is typically 15-45% below the average charge of dentists for the same services in a given geographical area.
