The CDCP & Your Family: Affordable Dental Care for a Healthier Future

Good oral health is a crucial part of overall well-being, yet dental care costs can be a significant burden for many families. The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) was introduced to bridge this gap, making essential dental services more accessible and affordable. Whether you’re looking for preventive care, treatments, or emergency procedures, the CDCP can help ensure your family maintains a healthy smile without the financial strain.

What is the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP)?

The CDCP is a government initiative designed to provide financial support for dental care to eligible Canadians. The program covers a range of oral health services, from routine check-ups to more complex procedures, helping individuals and families access the dental care they need without excessive out-of-pocket expenses.

Who is Eligible for the CDCP?

The CDCP is available to eligible Canadian residents who meet specific criteria, including:

  • Seniors aged 65 and over
  • Children under 18
  • Adults with a valid Disability Tax Credit certificate
  • Individuals with an adjusted family net income of less than $90,000

The program is rolling out in phases, with more groups expected to gain access over time. If you’re unsure whether you qualify, it’s best to check the government’s official website or consult with a participating dental provider like Clarity Dental.

What Services Does the CDCP Cover?

The CDCP covers a wide range of essential dental services, including:

  • Preventive Care: Routine exams, cleanings, fluoride treatments, and X-rays
  • Basic Services: Fillings, extractions, and emergency dental care
  • Major Services: Root canals, crowns, and dentures (subject to preauthorization)
  • Orthodontic Services: In specific cases, for medical necessity rather than cosmetic reasons

Coverage varies based on income and other factors, so it’s important to confirm with your dental provider what services are fully or partially covered under the CDCP.

How Much of the Cost is Covered?

The amount covered by the CDCP depends on your adjusted family net income:

  • Under $70,000: 100% of eligible costs covered
  • $70,000 – $79,999: 60% of eligible costs covered
  • $80,000 – $89,999: 40% of eligible costs covered

In some cases, additional fees may apply if the dental provider’s charges exceed the CDCP reimbursement rates. It’s always best to discuss potential out-of-pocket expenses before receiving treatment.

How to Apply for the CDCP

Applying for the CDCP is simple and can be done online. The government is rolling out the application process in stages, so check if your eligibility group is currently able to apply. You may need documents such as proof of income and residency to complete the application.
