What Is the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP)?
The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) is a federal dental benefit program designed to help eligible Canadian residents access dental care when they do not have private dental insurance coverage.
The program is administered by the Government of Canada and provides coverage for a wide range of preventive, diagnostic, and restorative dental services based on eligibility requirements and established coverage levels.
The CDCP is intended to reduce financial barriers to dental care and help Canadians receive the treatment they need to maintain good oral health.
Is Aldershot Village Dental Accepting CDCP Patients?
Yes.
Aldershot Village Dental welcomes patients covered under the Canadian Dental Care Plan. Our team will work with you to help verify your coverage and explain any potential out-of-pocket expenses before treatment begins.
We believe everyone deserves access to quality dental care, and we are pleased to support patients who qualify for the program.
