Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP)
At My Dentist Vancouver, we are committed to making dental care accessible, predictable, and easy to understand. Many patients look for a CDCP-accepting dentistry near me, and we are pleased to confirm that our clinic welcomes individuals and families covered under the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP). Whether you are new to the program or simply want help navigating your benefits, our team is here to guide you.
Understanding the CDCP in Simple Terms
The CDCP is a federal program designed to help eligible Canadians reduce the cost of necessary dental care. It supports routine and preventive services, along with treatments that help manage oral health concerns. The goal of the program is to ease financial pressure, allowing patients to stay focused on their oral health. CDCP coverage works with registered providers across the country, and our city centre practice is proud to participate.
The plan continues to roll out in phases, with coverage levels depending on income and eligibility category. No matter where you fall within the program, our team explains every step so you feel confident before moving forward with treatment.
Canadian Dental Care Plan Eligibility: Who Qualifies?
Eligibility is determined by the Government of Canada. In most cases, you may qualify if you:
- Meet the required household income threshold,
- Are you a Canadian resident without access to a private dental plan that disqualifies you,
- Apply through the official CDCP portal and receive approval before your appointment.
If you are unsure about Canadian Dental Care Plan eligibility, contact our team. We can explain what information you need and walk you through how to confirm your approval.
Dental Treatment Under CDCP: What the Plan May Cover
The CDCP focuses on services that support long-term oral health. Depending on your eligibility category and clinical needs, covered services may include:
- Dental exams, assessments, and X-rays
- Cleanings, fluoride, scaling, and sealants
- Emergency pain care, fillings, and simple extractions
- Root canal therapy on eligible teeth
- Periodontal treatment when clinically required
- Dentures, adjustments, and repairs (when allowed within CDCP guidelines)
Coverage amounts may vary, and some services require pre-authorization. Before any treatment, we review your benefits and provide a clear estimate so you know what is covered and if any patient portion applies. Our goal is to organize your care in a thoughtful, transparent way.
Our practice is proud to be among the dental clinics accepting CDCP. When you arrive, our team verifies your coverage, reviews allowable services, and answers questions about timelines or limits.
