Maximums - for dates of service through April 30, 2012

The TDP limits how much can be paid per enrollee for dental services. The following table outlines the TDP maximum amounts.

Maximum Description
Annual Maximum $1,200 per enrollee per contract year (Aug. 1, 2011 - April 30, 2012) for non-orthodontic services*
Lifetime Maximum $1,500 per enrollee for orthodontic treatment

If an enrollee receives orthodontic services (other than orthodontic diagnostic services), payments for these services will not exceed $1,500 during the enrollee's eligibility lifetime. Orthodontic diagnostic services will be applied to the $1,200 annual maximum.

*Payments for certain diagnostic and preventive services are not applied against the annual maximum. Please refer to the TRICARE Dental Program Benefit Booklet for specific procedures.

NOTE: There is no deductible for the TRICARE Dental Program contract.
