What is the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP)?

At Smile Horizons Dental Arts, we're dedicated to keeping Mississauga's residents smiling bright! If you're seeking clarity on the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP), you've come to the right place. Let's break it down.

The CDCP, a federal initiative, extends coverage to Canadian residents lacking dental benefits and with a household income under $90,000 annually. However, it's essential to note: the CDCP isn't a free dental program but a valuable government dental benefit.

Designed specifically for individuals without existing dental coverage, the CDCP complements rather than replaces benefits offered through employment, educational institutions, or private plans. Managed by Health Canada and administered by Sun Life, it aims to bridge the gap in dental care accessibility.

At Smile Horizons Dental Arts, we believe in empowering our community with knowledge about available dental resources. Remember, eligibility and coverage decisions for the CDCP aren't made by dental professionals like Dr. Aatika Ahmed, but rather by governing bodies.

If you have questions or seek further guidance regarding the CDCP or any dental concerns, our team is here to assist you every step of the way. Let's work together to ensure you receive the dental care you deserve!
