Is Tricare Selected Reserve and Tricare Dental worth it or should I just stick with the civilian portion of it?

Check to see which is cheaper to have.

I do not believe that you can be on the TRICARE reserve select and a Civilian Health Plan. If you are a MILTECH, you must be on the Civilian Health Plan (not sure what that is currently). If you are a GS or DA Civilian, you might be able to select the TRS Plan or Opt out. You should check with your HR Rep to see what is allowed.

If you live near an army Health Clinic and have a family Tricare Reserve Select is really worth checking out. The Dental coverage is run of the mil, but better then no coverage.
