TRICARE Dental Insurance Keeps Military Families Covered

TRICARE dental insurance provides coverage for your family’s dental care. TRICARE is a military healthcare program for service members and their families to receive care across the world. 

If you’re a service member and have a child, it’s important to make sure that your child’s dentist office accepts TRICARE to help cover the cost of dental care.

TRICARE Dental Plans

TRICARE offers three types of dental plans:

Active Duty Dental Program offers coverage for:

  • Active duty service members
  • Guard/Reserve members who are on active duty, issued delayed-effective-date orders or are covered by the Transitional Assistance Management Program
  • Service members who need line of duty care
  • Foreign force members stationed in the U.S.

TRICARE Dental Program is voluntary for:

  • Family of an active duty service member
  • Family of a National Guard/Reserve member
  • National Guard/Reserve member who is currently inactive or covered by the Transitional Assistance Management Program (TAMP)

TRICARE Retiree Dental Program is voluntary for:

  • Retired service members and their families
  • Retired Guard/Reserve members and their families
  • Medal of Honor recipients and their families
  • Survivors

The cost and coverage for TRICARE dental insurance can vary depending on whether you’re a beneficiary or service member. Typically, beneficiaries must pay a monthly premium and share some of the costs for services.
