WE ACCEPT THE CANADIAN DENTAL CARE PLAN (CDCP)

The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) is a government initiative designed to improve access to affordable dental care for eligible Canadians who lack private dental insurance. It aims to address the financial barriers that prevent many from receiving essential dental treatments, thus promoting better overall health and well-being.

The CDCP provides publicly funded dental benefits to eligible Canadians. To qualify, applicants must have a household income under $90,000 per year and no private dental insurance. The program helps cover part of the costs for a wide range of dental treatments—from routine check-ups and cleanings to fillings, x-rays, fillings, extractions, root canals, and other oral health issues. By making dental care more affordable, the CDCP aims to ensure more Canadians can get the dental care they need for better overall health.

To apply for the CDCP, eligible individuals need to complete an application through the official government website. You’ll need to provide information about your household income and confirm that you don’t have private dental insurance. Once approved, you’ll receive details about your coverage and how to use your benefits. Our dental office is happy to help guide you through the process and answer any questions you may have.

Anyone wishing to participate in this plan must meet the eligibility requirements outlined below.

• Be a Canadian resident for tax purposes.
• Filed an income tax return for the previous year.
• Do not have dental insurance through a private or pension plan or with an employer.
• Have a net (after tax) family income of less than $90,000 annually.

 We Accept CDCP with No Co-Pay for Patients with 100% Coverage 

We are pleased to accept the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) and welcome patients covered under the program

If your CDCP coverage is 100%, there is no co-pay and no out-of-pocket cost for covered services.

However, not all patients receive 100% coverage. Depending on your eligibility and the specific treatment provided, CDCP may cover only a portion of the cost. When CDCP coverage is less than 100%, the remaining balance is the patient's responsibility and must be paid as a co-pay at the time of treatment.

Please note that some dental services may not be covered by CDCP, or may be covered only in part. Any amount not covered by the plan will be billed directly to the patient.

If you have questions about your coverage or would like an estimate of any potential co-payments before your appointment, our team will be happy to assist you.
