What is the Canadian Dental Care Plan?

The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) is a federal program that helps residents with low or modest incomes access affordable dental care through participating providers.

Many people find the process unclear, especially the first time they interact with a government program. Our role is to provide expert guidance, help you understand what is required, and make sure your information is prepared correctly before it is submitted.

Who may be eligible?

You may qualify for the CDCP if you meet all of the following. Not sure? We'll help you check.

You filed your taxes

Income under $90,000

Your adjusted family net income is less than $90,000 per year.
