How MetLife PPO coverage works
MetLife PPO plans are organized into three tiers of care. Preventive services — cleanings, exams and X-rays — are typically covered at the highest level, often with little to nothing out of pocket at an in-network office. That's by design: MetLife wants you coming in regularly, and so does Dr. Kopakin.
Basic restorative work like fillings usually falls into a middle tier, where your plan pays a portion after your deductible. Major services — crowns, root canals, extractions and dentures — are generally covered at a lower percentage and count toward your annual maximum. Most MetLife PPO plans also have a deductible that resets each year, and the exact numbers depend on what your employer or marketplace selected.

Why in-network with MetLife makes a difference
Our direct agreement with MetLife sets what each service costs. You pay the contracted rate, not the full standard fee — and that gap adds up quickly on bigger procedures like crowns or several fillings in one visit.
A MetLife PPO still lets you see out-of-network dentists, but your costs are usually higher. When you choose a MetLife dentist in Clearwater who is in-network, your plan works the way it was designed to and you receive the most coverage it allows.
- Contracted rates instead of full standard fees
- Maximum coverage your plan allows
- Claims filed by our team — not by you

05Questions, answered
MetLife insurance FAQs
01Is Boulevard Dental an in-network MetLife dentist in Clearwater?
Yes. We're in-network with MetLife Insurance Company and have agreed to their contracted rates, which keeps your out-of-pocket costs lower than at an out-of-network office. Call (727) 799-4897 to confirm your specific plan.
02How does an in-network dentist differ from an out-of-network one?
An in-network dentist has a contract with your insurer to charge set rates and can't charge above them. Out-of-network dentists set their own fees, and your plan may cover less — or nothing. Seeing Dr. Kopakin keeps you within MetLife's network so your benefits go further.
03What does MetLife dental insurance usually cover?
Most MetLife plans cover preventive care — cleanings, exams and X-rays — at a high level, sometimes fully. Fillings are typically covered at a partial percentage, and crowns or root canals at a lower rate. Every plan is different, so we check your specific benefits before your visit.
04Does my MetLife deductible reset every year?
Most MetLife PPO plans include an annual deductible that resets each benefit year. We'll confirm where your deductible and annual maximum stand when we verify your benefits, so you can plan treatment with confidence.
05Will I save money with a MetLife dentist in Clearwater who is in-network?
In most cases, yes. Pre-negotiated rates mean you aren't paying full price for anything beyond your coverage — one of the biggest practical reasons to stay in-network. We're happy to walk through your plan at (727) 799-4897.
06How do I book an appointment with MetLife coverage?
Call (727) 799-4897 and let us know you have MetLife. We'll verify your coverage before your visit, find a time that works and answer any questions upfront. New patients are always welcome, and you can book online too.

Why patients trust their dentist in Clearwater
“I recently switched to Boulevard Dental and Dr. Kopakin. I have to say I was very pleased with the experience. The office space is very relaxing and the staff capable and friendly. Dr. Kopakin reassured me that a filling I was told was needed did, in fact, not need attention. It's very important to feel one's medical provider is competent and trustworthy. Dr. Kopakin fits that profile.”
Bill R.Verified patient “I've been going to Boulevard Dental for over 5 years, and I can honestly say it's the best dental care I've ever received. My dental hygienist is absolutely amazing—she's so gentle and calming during cleanings, which makes the whole experience stress-free. The dentist is fair and trustworthy; he only recommends what truly needs to be done and never pushes unnecessary procedures. Finding a dentist you can trust is not easy, and I'm so grateful to have found this place. Highly recommend!”
TaraVerified patient “December was my first apt with Dr. Kopakin. Rachel, my hygienist, did a fantastic job. Very thorough. It was a refreshing change to hear my teeth and gums looked great, very health with no issues. The atmosphere is relaxed and calm and very inviting. I am so happy I switched dental providers. I highly recommend Boulevard Dental on Park Street (off SR 580)…”
Susan L.Verified patient “I had a great first experience at Boulevard Dental! From the second I walked in the door, the front desk staff made me feel right at home. My hygienist Lisa was wonderful and took great care of me, frequently making sure I was not uncomfortable (and I never once was!). Dr. Clark was my dentist, and he was very knowledgeable and thorough. He answered all of my questions and then some. Looking forward to coming back in 6 months!”
