The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) is a new federal program designed to make dental care more accessible for Canadians who do not have private dental insurance. The plan helps eligible individuals receive essential dental services at a reduced cost or, in some cases, fully covered, depending on family income.

As a trusted dental office, our dental clinic proudly supports CDCP patients through the expertise of our experienced Dentists, skilled denturist, and dedicated pediatric dentist. We are committed to ensuring every eligible patient receives high-quality care with clarity, comfort, and transparency.
