At Emery Village Dental, our team is always looking for ways to make high-quality dentistry accessible and affordable to all our patients. That's why we're excited to announce that we now accept patients using the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP). This partnership with CDCP opens up a world of possibilities, allowing us to offer our wide range of comprehensive dental services to all patients, ensuring they receive the best possible care to protect their smiles and dental health. 

Am I Eligible for the Canadian Dental Care Plan?

There are a few ways you may be eligible to receive CDCP benefits:

  • You don't currently have dental insurance and have a household income of less than $90,000 per year
  • You are a senior aged 65 or older
  • You are a child under the age of 18
  • You are an adult with a valid federal Disability Tax Credit certificate

To qualify for CDCP, you also can't have access to dental benefits through a student organization, employer, or pension benefits. You can contact Service Canada if you have questions about eligibility for CDCP.

The Benefits of Using CDCP Coverage

The Canadian Dental Care Plan offers several benefits for families and patients who qualify.

Defrays Cost

The CDCP plan covers some dental care costs for qualifying children, adults, and seniors.

Promotes Oral Health

Good oral health is essential for maintaining your overall health and well-being.

Builds Relationships

The CDCP allows you to become a valued patient at Emery Village Dental, promoting good oral health.

Frequently Asked Questions

To apply for the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP), you must complete an online application through a dedicated portal that verifies your eligibility based on income, residency, and insurance status. The required documentation includes proof of income (such as tax returns or pay stubs), proof of residency (like a government-issued ID or utility bill), and evidence that you do not have private dental insurance. These documentation requirements ensure the program is accessible to those who need it most.

When Can I Start Using CDCP Benefits?

The timeline for when you can start using the CDCP depends on your eligibility group. Seniors aged 65 and above have been eligible since December 2023. Children under 18 and adults with disabilities could apply starting in June 2024, while the broader Canadian population is due to gain access in 2025. However, once your application is approved, coverage begins immediately.

For more details on eligibility and the specific application process, it’s best to consult official resources or reach out to your local dental office for guidance through the process and help with any questions.

Understanding CDCP Coverage

mom, dad, and daughter brushing teethCDCP is an excellent tool for helping defray the cost of dental care; however, there are some crucial parameters to understand. CDCP covers a portion of dental expenses, not the total cost of care. It's not customizable, and you are responsible for your portion of the cost of your dental care.  

At Emery Village Dental, we believe in transparency. Some treatment procedures may require preauthorization so that we will submit your treatment needs to CDCP. They will then determine the amount of coverage you'll receive and your out-of-pocket expense, ensuring you are fully informed about your dental care costs every step of the way.  

The CDCP benefit period covers 12 months—from July 1st to June 30th, and patients are reassessed each year to ensure their eligibility.
