The CDCP is a government-supported initiative designed to make dental care more accessible and affordable for eligible Canadians. It provides financial assistance to families and people who might otherwise face barriers to getting dental treatments.

The CDCP is designed to support Canadians who have a household income under $90,000, do not have access to any other dental insurance, and have filed their federal tax returns in Canada.

Between $70,000 and $79,999, CDCP covers 60% and you cover 40%. Between $80,000 and $89,999, CDCP covers 40% and you cover 60%.
