NASHVILLE, Tenn., Nov. 23, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SmileDirectClub<\/a>, Inc. (Nasdaq: SDC), the oral care company with the first telehealth platform for teeth straightening, has partnered with MetLife, one of the leading U.S. dental insurance providers, to deliver in-network coverage of SmileDirectClub’s convenient, affordable, remote orthodontic care to the more than 20 million individuals insured under its dental plans.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re pleased to launch this partnership with MetLife and provide their millions of participants with access to our pioneering teledentistry platform and our premium, American-made clear aligners on an in-network basis,\u201d said Chief Executive Officer David Katzman. \u201cWith this partnership, SmileDirectClub\u2019s innovative clear aligner treatment is now covered by almost all major insurance providers in the U.S. We\u2019re proud to join with MetLife in our mission of making orthodontic care convenient and affordable for everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n
