Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) – Vitality Dentistry, Markham

At Vitality Dentistry in Markham, we are proud to support the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) — a new government initiative designed to make dental care more accessible for eligible Canadians. If you qualify, you may be able to receive essential dental services at a reduced cost or no cost at all.


What is the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP)?

The CDCP is a national dental program that helps reduce financial barriers for dental care among Canadians. Up to 9 million Canadian residents are expected to benefit from this initiative. If you do not have private dental insurance and meet the income criteria, you may be eligible for coverage under the CDCP.

Who Is Eligible?

To qualify for the Canadian Dental Care Plan, you must meet all of the following criteria:

  • Be a Canadian resident for tax purposes
  • Have no access to private dental insurance
  • Have an adjusted family net income of less than $90,000
  • Have filed your most recent Canadian tax return
  • If applicable, your spouse or common-law partner must also meet the same requirements

Eligibility is assessed using your income tax filings.

What Dental Services Are Covered?

As a CDCP-participating dental clinic in Markham, Vitality Dentistry provides a variety of dental treatments covered under this plan. Based on your oral health provider’s recommendation, the CDCP may reimburse you for a wide range of services, including:

  • Dental exams and X-rays
  • Scaling (cleaning)
  • Fillings and tooth restorations
  • Root canal treatments
  • Oral surgery (including tooth extractions)
  • Removable dentures

Coverage levels are based on your adjusted family net income, and the CDCP reimburses providers directly using a set fee guide. In some cases, patients may need to pay a portion of the cost if treatment exceeds CDCP allowances or differs from the standard provincial fee guide.

Routine Dental Care Is Important!

Oral health is essential to your overall well-being. Regular dental visits help prevent tooth decaygum disease, and may reduce your risk of heart disease and stroke. At Vitality Dentistry, we’re committed to providing quality dental care to our Markham community, including those who qualify for low-income dental care under the CDCP.
