What is the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP)?
The CDCP is a government initiative designed to provide affordable dental services to those who might
otherwise be unable to afford it. This plan specifically focuses on low- to middle-income families with
children under 18 and seniors aged 65 and above. It covers a wide range of dental services, including
preventive care, restorative treatments, and emergency dental procedures.
At Metro City Dentistry, we are proud to be a CDCP provider, helping families and seniors in Brampton, Woodbridge, and Mississauga access dental care without worrying about high out-of-pocket expenses.
Dental Services for Children (Under 18)
At Metro City Dentistry, we understand the importance of starting dental care early. Our team provides
a variety of services designed to support children's oral health, ensuring that their teeth develop
properly and that they build good habits for the future. Our CDCP-covered services for children include:
- Routine Checkups and Cleanings: Regular dental visits are essential for preventing cavities and keeping teeth and gums healthy. Under CDCP, children can access bi-annual cleanings and exams without any financial strain.
- Fluoride Treatments and Sealants: We offer fluoride treatments and sealants to protect young teeth from cavities and decay. These preventive measures are fully covered under the CDCP.
- Fillings and Restorations: If your child has a cavity, the CDCP ensures that treatment, such as fillings and other restorative procedures, is covered, helping to prevent further decay and preserve their oral health.
- Orthodontic Assessments: Early orthodontic intervention can help prevent serious alignment issues later in life. While CDCP may not cover full orthodontic treatment, we provide assessments to help parents plan for any necessary care.
- Emergency Dental Care: Accidents happen, and if your child experiences a dental emergency such as a knocked-out tooth or severe pain, CDCP helps cover the costs of urgent care, ensuring quick and efficient treatment.
Dental Services for Seniors (65 and Older)
Oral health needs change as we age, and seniors often face a variety of dental challenges. Under the
Canadian Dental Care Plan, we offer comprehensive dental care tailored to older adults. Our CDCP-
covered services for seniors include:
- Routine Examinations and Cleanings: Regular checkups are vital for maintaining healthy teeth and gums. Seniors can access these essential services twice a year through the CDCP.
- Dentures and Partial Dentures: Tooth loss is common among seniors, and the CDCP helps cover the costs of full or partial dentures to restore function and appearance.
- Fillings and Crowns: Restorative treatments, such as fillings and crowns, are covered under the CDCP to address tooth decay or damage, helping seniors maintain their oral health for years to come.
- Gum Disease Treatment: Gum disease can be a serious issue for seniors, leading to tooth loss if not treated. CDCP covers periodontal treatment, ensuring seniors get the care they need to keep their gums healthy.
- Emergency Dental Services: If a senior experiences a dental emergency, such as a broken tooth or oral infection, CDCP helps cover the costs of emergency care, ensuring fast relief and proper treatment.
