You pay less in paycheck employee contributions in exchange for a higher deductible and lower annual benefit maximum.
Earn money back if you select “Dental Opt-Out” for dental coverage. If you currently have the Dental Opt-Out coverage, this will automatically carry over to next year.
If you don’t enroll as a new employee or if you have waived coverage in the past and do not take action during Annual Enrollment, you will automatically default to “No Coverage” and will not receive any money back. In order to enroll in a dental plan or receive money back for opting out, you must take action.

With the Dental I plan, Huber offers the opportunity to increase your dental annual maximum when you receive preventive care such as cleanings, oral exams, and x-rays. Your annual dollar maximum will grow each year by $100 as long as you stay enrolled in the Dental I plan and keep getting preventive care.
Example: If you and your eligible dependents each complete a routine cleaning in 2024, your annual dental maximum will increase by $100 in 2025, from $2,300 to $2,400. (This means members of the same family could have different annual dollar maximums in future years.)
A covered member can have up to three progressions in increases to their annual dollar maximum of $2,600.
Periodontal maintenance procedures following active therapy is covered under diagnostic/preventative (Class I) under both dental plans.
Use your Health Savings Account (HSA) or Health Care Flexible Spending Account (FSA) to pay for eligible dental expenses with tax-free dollars.

Here’s how to make the most of your dental benefits:
Each time you need dental care, you have a choice of providers. Selecting a Cigna participating dentist will ensure you receive the highest benefits from your plan. To find a provider, go to the Cigna website.
Your Aetna medical plan covers oral surgery that is dental in nature, such as simple extractions. We strongly recommend that you ask your provider to submit requests for a predetermination of coverage to both Aetna and Cigna prior to any dental surgery being performed.
You can review Explanation of Benefits (EOB) statements, check if claims have been paid, print a dental ID proof of coverage and more on the Cigna website.
