Honestly with Tricare Prime use the Bassett Eye Clinic and the pediatricians are great as well. For dentist, quite a few take MetLife so it's just a matter of finding that one good fit. Alot of people like Young Smiles, Four Corners and Helmbrecht. Mine is in North Pole so unless you live there Im sure you would like it to be closer. Good luck!
North Star Children's Dentistry Dr. Johnson is Great very friendly and talks the children to keep them calm and explains the tools they use.. 114 Minnie Street Suite A Upstairs.. 907.452.4509 He's not even my son's dentist we just had a referral to get my 4 yr old son's cavity fixed i am thinking of keeping him there

My son goes to North Star to see Dr. Johnson also. He loves it there! Keep in mind, however, that they aren't an in network provider therefore you pay more out of pocket.
