Canadian Dental Care Plan

We accept the CDCP

The Canadian Dental Care Plan helps make dental care more affordable for Canadians who don't have private dental insurance. We welcome CDCP patients, bill the plan directly, and walk you through your coverage before any treatment begins — so there are no surprises.

  • Who qualifies

    Canadian residents with no access to private dental insurance who have filed their tax return, with an adjusted family net income under $90,000.

  • What's covered

    The plan covers a portion of the cost of many essential services like checkups, cleanings and fillings. Depending on your income, a small share of the cost may be yours to pay.

  • How we make it easy

    We submit claims to the CDCP for you, explain exactly what is and isn't covered up front, and give you a written estimate before treatment starts.

Your first visit

A clear starting point for your care

01

A conversation about you

Share your concerns, past dental experiences, medical history and smile goals. Let us know about anxiety, sensitivity or accessibility needs when arranging your visit.

02

An individual assessment

Your dentist assesses your teeth, gums and oral health. Imaging and other checks are recommended according to your needs; not every patient needs the same tests or treatment.

03

Understand your next steps

Discuss the findings, suitable treatment choices and preventive care. Ask about risks, alternatives, estimated costs and coverage before deciding how to proceed.

What to bring

  • Photo ID and your contact information
  • Insurance or CDCP details, if applicable
  • A list of medications, allergies and medical conditions
  • Details of your previous dentist and recent dental records, if available

Between appointments

Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste and clean between your teeth each day. Your dentist can recommend techniques and a recall schedule based on your oral health. Persistent bleeding gums, new sensitivity or tooth pain are reasons to seek advice rather than wait for a routine checkup.

Frequently asked questions

How do I book my first appointment?+

Fill out the appointment request form below and our team will call you to confirm a time, or call us directly during opening hours.

What should I bring to my first visit?+

Please bring a piece of ID, your insurance or Canadian Dental Care Plan details if you have them, and a list of any medications you take.

What happens at my first appointment?+

Your first visit includes a full exam, any needed X-rays, and a conversation about your smile goals. We'll walk you through a treatment plan and its costs before anything begins.

Do you accept the Canadian Dental Care Plan?+

Yes — we welcome CDCP patients, submit claims directly to the plan, and explain what's covered before your treatment starts.

Do you see children?+

Absolutely. We love treating whole families, and we take extra care to make children's first visits gentle, fun and fear-free.

I'm nervous about the dentist. Can you help?+

You're not alone — many of our patients felt the same at first. We go at your pace, explain everything in plain language, and never rush an appointment.

Will my insurance or CDCP cover all of my treatment?+

Coverage depends on your plan, eligibility and the treatment recommended. Some services have limits or need approval, and you may have a co-payment or other out-of-pocket costs. Bring your plan details so coverage and an estimate can be reviewed before you decide.

Can I discuss treatment options before deciding?+

Yes. Ask about the purpose of a recommended treatment, its risks and benefits, suitable alternatives, costs and what may happen if treatment is postponed. Recommendations depend on an examination and your individual needs.

What if I have tooth pain before my first visit?+

Call the clinic and describe your symptoms rather than waiting for a routine appointment. Trouble breathing or swallowing, rapidly spreading facial or neck swelling, or uncontrolled bleeding requires emergency medical care—call 911 or go to an emergency department.
