WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) is a federal

government program. It aims to provide assistance with

dental services for Canadian residents with a household

income of less than $90,000 a year and who don't have

dental benefits.

IT IS NOT A FREE DENTAL PROGRAM.

Depending on their adjusted family net income, patients may have to make a co-payment of up to 60%. They may also have to pay costs the CDCP does not cover.

THE CDCP DOES NOT COVER ALL DENTAL SERVICES.

Before you start any treatment, you should understand your dental care costs. Please tell your dentist if you plan to use the CDCP benefits. This dental office may or may not take part in the CDCP.
