Canadian Dental Care Plan Near You
At Caledonia Crosstown Dental Centre, we recognize that everyone should be able to smile without pain, regardless of finances or insurance. This is why we are pleased to promote the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) and support qualifying patients to receive dental care at little or no cost. If you are looking for a dentist who supports the Canadian Dental Care Plan in York, we would be pleased to help you through the process.

What is the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP)?
The CDCP is a government program that provides access to essential dental care to Canadians who do not have private insurance for dental care. If your adjusted family net income is under $90,000 and you meet the other criteria set out in the program, there is a chance that you can receive full or partial coverage for all types of dental care.
At Caledonia Crosstown Dental Centre, we proudly welcome CDCP-eligible patients and will help you to better understand your coverage, apply for the program, and get the treatment you need with confidence.
Who Is Eligible for the CDCP?
You may qualify if:
- You are a Canadian resident
- You don’t have access to dental insurance through work or a private plan.
- Your adjusted family net income is under $90,000
- You meet the government’s age and application criteria.
CDCP for seniors and other eligible age groups is now open! If you’re unsure whether you qualify, our friendly staff is here to help verify your eligibility and assist you with the application process.
Understanding Your Coverage and Co-Payments
Even though the CDCP may significantly lower the cost of dental care, depending on your income, you could have to pay a co-payment:
Sr. No | Adjusted Family Net Income | CDCP Coverage |
---|---|---|
1 | Lower than $70,000 | 100% of eligible costs covered |
2 | $70,000–$79,999 | 60% of eligible costs covered |
3 | $80,000–$89,999 | 40% of eligible costs covered |
Please note: Even if you’re approved for full coverage, the CDCP may not match the exact cost of some procedures. Patients, including those using dental plans for seniors, may be responsible for the difference.

- Routine exams and cleanings
