EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE CANADIAN DENTAL CARE PLAN (CDCP)

We are excited to welcome all patients who have signed up for the CDCP! Here are some things you will need to know before booking your next dental appointment with us:
- We have been told by Sun Life that CDCP patients should expect a period of 3 months from the initial time of applying for the program and the start of their dental coverage
- You will first receive an approval letter in the mail with your membership ID, but you will still need to wait up to an additional 4 weeks after this to receive your "Welcome Package" which will include your benefits card and the date your benefits become active
- Once you have your physical CDCP card, you can begin receiving treatments such as cleanings, x-rays, fillings, and extractions
- There are some treatments (such as certain types of dentures, general anaesthesia, and others) that will not be available until November 2024 at the earliest
- Everyone's individual CDCP plan may differ from 40% to 100% coverage of dental treatments
- We submit all dental claims directly to Sun Life on your behalf
- As of today, people aged 65 and above are now eligible to apply by calling 1-833-537-4342 (select option number 1) or visiting https://www.canada.ca/en/services/benefits/dental/dental-care-plan/apply.html

We are doing our best to stay up to date with all CDCP updates. Feel free to call us at (807) 737-0011 if you have any questions!
