The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) is a federal dental benefit funded by the Government of Canada and
administered by Health Canada and Sun Life.
The program helps Canadians without private dental insurance access essential dental care by covering a
portion of treatment costs through participating dental clinics.
Important: The CDCP does not always cover 100% of treatment costs.
Some patients may have a co-payment depending on their household income, and certain services may not be covered.
In simple terms, the CDCP:
- Helps eligible Canadians afford dental care
- Is funded by the Government of Canada
- Is administered by Sun Life
- Supports children, adults, seniors, and individuals without private insurance
At White Rose Dental Studio, we help patients understand their coverage before treatment begins.

CDCP Eligibility Rollout

Seniors aged 65 and older
Children under 18
Adults eligible for the Disability Tax Credit
Other eligible adults without private insurance
If you are unsure about your eligibility timeline, our team can help explain the process.
How the CDCP Works
The CDCP covers a percentage of eligible dental services based on your adjusted family net income.
| Family Income | CDCP Coverage | Patient Co-Payment |
|---|---|---|
| Under $70,000 | 100% | 0% |
| $70,000 – $79,999 | 60% | 40% |
| $80,000 – $89,999 | 40% | 60% |
Patients may still be responsible for:
- Their co-payment portion
- Services not covered by CDCP
- Any difference between CDCP fees and the Ontario Dental Association fee guide (if applicable)
At White Rose Dental Studio, we always review treatment costs in advance so there are no surprises.
