What is the Canadian Dental Care Plan?

The Canadian Dental Care Plan is like health insurance, but for your teeth! The Canadian government has introduced a program to assist in paying for dental visits. If you are eligible, the government will cover a portion or full payment of your dental care.

The best part? This program is designed specifically for people who do not already have dental insurance and benefits coverage through their employer.

How Much Money Can You Save?

The amount of help you get depends on how much money your family makes each year. Here’s how it works:
Adjusted Family Net Income Government Covers Your Co‑Payment Extra Balance Billing
Under CAD 70,000 100% of the fee schedule 0% Any amount above the CDCP fee guide
CAD 70,000–79,999 60% of the fee schedule 40% Any excess fee above the CDCP rates
CAD 80,000–89,999 40% of the fee schedule 60% Any excess fee above the CDCP rates

**Coverage and Co-Payments in this schedule are based on the CDCP Fee Guide, which is less than the Ontario Dental Association Fee Guide. Even patients covered at 100% will have a co-payment based on our Ontario Dental Association Fee Guide Pricing**

Even if you have to pay something, it’s still way less expensive than paying the full price!
