The New Canadian Dental Care Plan: How You Can Benefit

Canada has taken a significant step forward in ensuring comprehensive dental care for its citizens. The introduction of the new Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) aims to bridge the gap in dental health services and make dental care more accessible and affordable for all Canadians. At My Mobile Dental Hygienist, we believe in the importance of dental health and are excited to share the details of this groundbreaking initiative with our clients and community.

Understanding the Canadian Dental Care Plan

The CDCP is designed to provide dental care coverage to millions of Canadians without adequate dental insurance. The plan targets individuals and families who fall within specific income brackets, ensuring that dental health is no longer a privilege but a fundamental right.

Here’s a breakdown of what the plan entails:

1. Eligibility

To qualify for the CDCP, you must:

  • not have access to dental insurance

  • have an adjusted family net income of less than $90,000

  • be a Canadian resident for tax purposes

  • have filed your tax return for the previous year

If you have dental coverage through a provincial, territorial or federal government social program, you can still qualify for the CDCP. If you meet all the eligibility criteria, your coverage will be coordinated between the plans to ensure there are no duplications or gaps in coverage.

2. Covered Services

The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) will help cover a wide range of oral health care services that keep your teeth and gums healthy and prevent and treat oral health care issues and diseases.

Services that could be covered under the CDCP when recommended by an oral health provider include:

  • preventive services, including scaling (cleaning), sealants and fluoride

  • diagnostic services, including examinations and x-rays

  • restorative services, including fillings

  • endodontic services, including root canal treatments

  • prosthodontic services, including:

    • complete dentures

    • partial removable dentures

  • periodontal services, including deep scaling

  • oral surgery services, including extractions
