What Is the Canadian Dental Care Plan?
The Canadian Dental Care Plan is a federal program that helps eligible Canadian residents with the cost of dental care. It is available to eligible people of different ages, including children, adults and seniors.
Enrolment does not mean that every treatment is covered or that every visit will be free. Before proceeding, ask about the recommended care and any amount you may need to pay.
Who May Qualify for CDCP?
To qualify, applicants must meet all four main requirements:
- Have no access to private dental insurance or coverage.
- Have an adjusted family net income below $90,000.
- Have filed the required Canadian tax return for the previous year, along with their spouse or common-law partner, if applicable.
- Be a Canadian resident for tax purposes, with this requirement also applying to their spouse or common-law partner, if applicable.
Access to workplace or family dental benefits can affect eligibility, even if you do not use them. Coverage through a government social program may be coordinated with CDCP. Service Canada determines eligibility; the dental clinic does not approve applications.
Which Dental Services May Be Covered?
Depending on the plan’s rules and your treatment needs, eligible services may include:
- Preventive and diagnostic care: Dental examinations, X-rays, scaling, fluoride applications and sealants.
- Restorative treatment: Fillings and certain crowns.
- Root canal and gum care: Eligible treatments for affected teeth and supporting tissues.
- Dentures: Certain removable dentures and denture repairs.
- Oral surgery: Tooth removal and other eligible surgical procedures.
Some services require preauthorization, and frequency limits apply. A recommended treatment is not automatically approved for coverage.
Will I Have to Pay Anything?
Your income-based co-payment is calculated using CDCP-established fees:
- Below $70,000: No income-based co-payment.
- $70,000–$79,999: A 40% co-payment.
- $80,000–$89,999: A 60% co-payment.
Additional charges may apply if the clinic’s fees exceed CDCP fees or you choose services outside the plan. Even without a co-payment, your visit may involve an out-of-pocket cost. Ask for an estimate before accepting treatment.
Planning Your CDCP Appointment at Dandon Dental Clinic
When you call, tell us that you have CDCP coverage and describe any dental concerns. A routine checkup and an appointment for a painful tooth may need different arrangements, so sharing this information helps us plan your visit.
Have your member information and coverage start date available. Bring your current medication list and tell the dental team about changes to your health. If you have been away from dental care for a while, you can also make a short list of questions you would like to discuss.
Your visit is an opportunity to understand your oral health, ask about treatment choices and decide how to proceed. Let us know if you are concerned about costs or nervous about an appointment so we can discuss those concerns with you.
How to Apply for the Canadian Dental Care Plan
Applications are made through Service Canada. Visit the official CDCP application page for instructions, or call Service Canada at 1-833-537-4342.
After approval, check your coverage start date before receiving care under the plan. Keep track of renewal requirements so you can avoid a gap in coverage.
