Tele-Dentistry Orthodontia Providers
Services from the below tele-dentistry orthodontia providers are discounted for eligible dependents under the age of 24 who are enrolled in Aetna’s PPO Dental Plan* ONLY:
- Byte
- Candid
These providers deliver aligners for straightening teeth without having to visit a dentist’s office. You can use an at-home impression kit, obtain a treatment plan, and aligners are mailed directly to your home.**
*These providers DO NOT participate under the DMO plan.
**Please Note: NYP members over age 24 will have access to discounted rates when paying direct for their tele-dentistry services for these providers. Although they will not receive reimbursement for the services from the plan they will receive a discount compared to the average cost of Invisalign services with an onsite orthodontist.
