Bento is a proud partner of the DenteMax PPO and ConnectionDental PPO networks giving you even more options for dental providers.


The Bento Network

MEMBERS: As a Bento Member, you have access to the entire national Bento Network which includes contracted rates for covered services with a no balance billing policy when visiting Bento Dentists and Bento Partner Dentists*. This plan works at ANY licensed dentist in the US; however you get the best rates when going to in-network Bento Dentists and Specialists. Your plan will pay the dentist through Bento for any plan payments.

PROVIDERS: Both in-network (Plus Network, DenteMax PPO and Connection Dental PPO) and out-of-network dentists should submit claims via the Bento Dentist Portal (dentists.bento.net). Claims can be processed and paid via direct deposit (fastest) or check.

For assistance accessing the Bento Dentist Portal contact Bento at smile@bento.net or call 800-734-8484.

Non-Bento Network Coverage (Out-of-Network)

This plan’s payment for services received from Non-Bento Dentists (out-of-network) is based on either the dentist’s fee or MAC, whichever is lower. Bento Members that utilize the services of a Non-Bento Dentist whose fees are higher than the MAC fee for that region, will be responsible for the difference between the plan payment and the dentist’s total submitted charges.

Processing Fee for Non-Portal Reimbursements
Bento is not an insurance company and charges a $1.59 processing fee for non-portal reimbursements for practices that do not use Bento’s free checkout option. Bento’s online checkout is the most secure and the fastest way to collect payment for all treatment given to Bento patients and allows for either paper check or ACH. Bento’s portal (dentists.bento.net) is completely free and allows you to check eligibility, generate estimates, and collect payment all in real time without ever having to file an ADA form.

Non-Portal submissions for completed ADA forms:
Mail: Bento | Claims Department | PO Box 9028 | Boston, MA 02114 Fax: (855) 214-4888
ePayer ID: N/A
Group Number: N/A

Patients (Bento Members) are responsible for paying any remaining balances between the plan payment and dentist’s fees. Out-of-network providers can join the Bento Network at any time, setup is quick, free, and easy. Visit bento.net.dentist to learn more.
