Applying for the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) is simple. If you live in Suuery and want to access affordable dental care through CDCP, just follow these steps:
Make sure you meet all the CDCP criteria. This includes having no private dental insurance and a family income under $90,000.
Applications are now open for seniors aged 65 and over, individuals with a valid Disability Tax Credit certificate, and children under 18. All other eligible Canadians will be able to apply later in 2025.
You’ll need your Social Insurance Number (SIN), your most recent tax return, and basic personal information.
Visit the official Government of Canada website or call the CDCP helpline to submit your application.
Once you’re approved, you can book your appointment at Smile Plus and start receiving dental care covered under the CDCP. For more information and to apply, visit the official Canadian Dental Care Plan page.
To qualify for the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) in Smile Plus, you must meet all four of the following requirements:
✔ You do not have access to private dental insurance
✔ You have filed a recent Canadian tax return (this also applies to your spouse or common-law partner, if applicable)
✔ Your total family income is under $90,000 per year
✔ You are a Canadian resident for tax purposes
Right now, applications are open for seniors aged 65 and older, children under 18, and individuals who hold a valid Disability Tax Credit certificate. Other eligible groups will be able to apply starting in 2025. If you’re already covered under a government dental program, you may still qualify. CDCP will work alongside existing coverage to make sure your care is fully coordinated without overlap.
The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) is designed to reduce out-of-pocket dental costs for eligible patients in Surrey. The amount covered depends on your adjusted family net income, with coverage ranging from 40% to 100% of CDCP-approved rates.
CDCP Coverage Based on Income:
What Is a Co-Payment?
A co-payment is the portion of the cost that you’re responsible for, based on your income level. CDCP only covers services at the rates it sets, so you may be responsible for:
✔ The difference if your dentist charges more than CDCP’s set rates
✔ Any procedures that are not covered under the program
If you qualify, CDCP can significantly lower your dental expenses. For full details or help understanding how much your care will cost, feel free to contact us at Smile Plus. We’re here to help you make the most of your benefits.
