It turns out money can buy happiness--;at least at the dentist's office. Beginning January 1, 2026, your dental benefits are getting a rather handsome upgrade:
- Active participants: Your annual family dental allowance climbs to $3,500.
- Retired participants: Your annual family allowance rises to $1,500.
And because we know nothing says "peace of mind" quite like never worrying about cleanings again--effective the same day, the Plan will now cover 100% of all diagnostic and preventative dental services up to those annual family limits. Translation? We'll pick up the tab for keeping your smile healthy, because fixing is always costlier than preventing. (Think of it as compounding interest, only with enamel.)
So yes, it's not just your smile that's brighter. Your benefits are, too.
