Canadian Dental Care Plan

Maple Dental Office & Mapleview Dental Centre: Now Accepting the New Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP)

We are excited to announce that Maple Dental Office and Mapleview Dental Centre are now accepting the new Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP). Currently, we offer services under this plan for restorative and generic dental services, also known as general dentistry. This includes essential treatments such as cleanings, fillings, extractions, and root canals. As the CDCP continues to evolve, there may be updates to the services covered, and we will adjust our offerings accordingly to provide more comprehensive care in the future.

What Is the Ontario Fee Guide?

At Maple Dental Office and Mapleview Dental Centre, we follow the Ontario Dental Association Fee Guide, which sets standardized pricing for dental services across Ontario. This guide helps ensure that patients receive fair and consistent pricing for dental care. However, it’s important to note that the CDCP operates under its own fee structure, which may be different from the Ontario Fee Guide.

In many cases, the CDCP may not cover the entire cost of a procedure according to the Ontario Fee Guide. When this happens, patients are responsible for paying the difference between what the CDCP covers and the actual cost of the treatment as outlined in the fee guide. It is a common misconception that the CDCP provides free dental care. While the plan offers substantial financial assistance, patients should anticipate some out-of-pocket expenses for certain treatments that aren’t fully covered.

Who Qualifies for the CDCP?

The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) is designed to provide essential dental care for Canadians who meet certain income and insurance criteria.

Eligibility requirements may evolve as the program expands, so we encourage you to stay informed about any updates.
