Canadian Dental Care Plan

Accessible. Affordable. Essential.

The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) will help make the cost of dental care more affordable for up to 9 million eligible Canadian residents.

Oral health care is important to your overall health and well being. Regular visits reduce the risk of health problems.

In 2022, 1 in 4 Canadians reported avoiding visiting an oral health professional due to the cost. Every Canadian deserves accessible, affordable and essential dental care.

  • not have access to dental insurance
