Can I use CDCP for a dental emergency?

In case of any dental emergency that you might be facing, please reach out to our clinic immediately for further discussion about your dental concern, along with various CDCP aspects and treatment options available.

Can I get a dental examination through CDCP?

Dental examinations may be covered under CDCP when they meet the program's eligibility, frequency, and coverage requirements.

Are X-rays covered under CDCP?

Eligible X-rays may be covered when they meet CDCP requirements and are required as part of your dental care. Coverage is subject to applicable program limits.

Can I get a second opinion if I already have a treatment plan?

Absolutely. Should you wish to get another professional viewpoint before proceeding with the treatment, you can make an appointment with us for a consultation, where we can go through your dental issues, treatment suggestions, and options.

Can I use CDCP at any dental clinic?

CDCP patients should confirm with the dental provider before their appointment that the clinic accepts CDCP patients and can submit claims directly to Sun Life. Not every dental service is automatically covered simply because a patient has CDCP coverage. Coverage depends on the specific service and applicable CDCP requirements.

Will I have to pay anything if CDCP covers my treatment?

Possibly. Your CDCP co-payment depends on your adjusted family net income, and additional charges may apply when the dental office's fee is higher than the CDCP-established fee or when the plan does not cover a service. Ask about expected costs before proceeding with treatment.

The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) is a federal dental benefit program that helps eligible Canadian residents access dental care.

CDCP may cover a range of eligible oral health services. Coverage depends on the type of treatment, CDCP requirements, frequency limits, and whether preauthorization is required.

Having CDCP coverage does not necessarily mean that every dental service will be fully covered or that there will be no out-of-pocket costs.

For the most current information about the program, visit the Government of Canada CDCP page.

Who May Be Eligible for CDCP?

Current CDCP eligibility requirements include all of the following:

You do not have access to private dental insurance or dental coverage through another source.
You have filed your tax return in Canada for the applicable year.
Your adjusted family net income is less than $90,000.
You are a Canadian resident for tax purposes.

Eligibility is reviewed according to the program's requirements. Before scheduling treatment, check the current CDCP eligibility requirements provided by the Government of Canada.

What Dental Services Can CDCP Cover?

CDCP may cover a range of eligible dental services when they meet the program's requirements.

Coverage varies depending on the service and your individual circumstances. Some procedures are subject to frequency limits, while certain treatments may require preauthorization.

How Much Does CDCP Cover?

Your CDCP co-payment depends on your adjusted family net income. The percentage paid by CDCP applies to the CDCP-established fee for an eligible service, rather than necessarily to the dental office's total fee.

Additional costs may apply if:

The dental office's fee is higher than the CDCP-established fee.
CDCP does not cover the service.
The treatment exceeds an applicable frequency limit.
A procedure requires preauthorization and the applicable requirements are not met.

Before proceeding with treatment, ask about the expected CDCP coverage, your co-payment, and any additional amount you may need to pay.

Does CDCP Require Preauthorization?

Some dental treatments require preauthorization before CDCP will provide coverage.

When appropriate, your dentist can submit the proposed treatment for review to determine whether preauthorization is required and whether the treatment meets the applicable CDCP criteria.

Preauthorization does not necessarily mean that every cost associated with a procedure will be covered. Your dental provider can explain the proposed treatment and any expected patient costs before treatment begins.
