Best Step-by-Step Guide to the CDCP Dental Plan in Vancouver

What is the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP)?

The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) is a new government program launched to make dental care more affordable for millions of Canadians. If you have a low or moderate income and do not have private dental insurance, you may now be eligible for free or partially

covered dental treatments under this plan.

The program is being rolled out in phases, and many patients in Vancouver have already received their eligibility letters or Sun Life coverage cards, which are used to manage the benefits.

 Who is eligible for CDCP?

You may qualify if:

✅Living in Canada is one of the eligibility requirements.

✅A household income below $90,000 per year is needed.

✅No private dental insurance? That’s another key condition.

✅ You’ve applied through the Government of Canada’s portal

Once approved, Sun Life will send you details on how your plan works including your coverage start date, co-payment levels, and instructions for using it at your dentist’s office.

 What does CDCP cover?

coverage includes a wide range of basic dental services, such as:

✅ Exams & cleanings

✅Fillings & extractions

✅Root canals

✅Dentures (full and partial)

✅Preventive services (such as fluoride treatment and sealants)

✅X-rays and more
