Accessible Dental Care through the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP)
Access to dental care should never be delayed because of cost. The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) now makes it possible for many Canadians to receive essential dental treatment at little to no cost.
At Fort York Dentist, we proudly welcome patients covered under CDCP and make the entire process simple, transparent, and stress-free.
✅ What is the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP)?
The CDCP is a federal government program that provides dental coverage for Canadians who:
- Do not have private dental insurance
- Have a household income under $90,000
- Have filed their most recent tax return
This program is designed to help individuals and families who previously could not afford dental care.
💸 How Much Does CDCP Cover?
Coverage depends on your household income:
- Under $70,000 → Up to 100% coverage
- $70,000–$79,999 → Partial coverage
- $80,000–$89,999 → Lower percentage coverage
👉 Important:
If you qualify for 100% coverage, there will be no balance or extra charges for covered services at our office.
If you do not have 100% coverage, you will only pay your co-payment in our office — no hidden fees or unexpected costs.
We believe in honest, transparent dentistry — you will always know your cost before treatment begins.
🦷 What Dental Services Are Covered?
The CDCP covers a wide range of essential treatments, including:
- Dental exams and check-ups
- X-rays
- Professional cleanings
- Fillings
- Root canal treatment
- Gum (periodontal) therapy
- Extractions and minor oral surgery
- Dentures (complete and partial)
Some treatments may require pre-authorization, but our team will guide you through every step.
