CDCP Information for Patients

What is the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP)?

The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) is a federal program that helps cover the cost of essential dental services for eligible Canadians without private insurance.

At Mississauga Dental Partners, we help patients across Mississauga and the GTA access an affordable dentist through this program – so cost doesn’t stand in the way of your oral health.

Am I Eligible for CDCP?

You may be eligible if:

  • You do not have private dental insurance
  • Your adjusted family net income is less than $90,000
  • You are a Canadian resident for tax purposes
  • You and your spouse/common-law partner (if applicable) must have filed your tax returns in Canada so that your family income can be assessed for the previous year

*Note: If you have dental coverage through a provincial, territorial or federal government social program, you can still qualify for the CDCP. If you qualify, your coverage will be coordinated between the plans to make sure there are no duplications or gaps in coverage.
