Understanding the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) at Dr. Gina Ha & Associates
At Dr. Gina Ha & Associates, we are committed to providing affordable, high-quality dental care to our patients. We are pleased to accept patients that are a part of the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP), a new government initiative aimed at making dental services more accessible for Canadians. This plan is designed to help individuals and families who may not have private dental insurance access essential dental care at a reduced cost.
What Is the Canadian Dental Care Plan?
The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) provides financial assistance for basic dental services
such as routine check-ups, cleanings, fillings, extractions, and root canals. The CDCP aims to
ensure that more Canadians can maintain their oral health without facing the financial burden of
high dental costs.
While the plan offers significant support, it’s important to note that the CDCP does not cover
the entire cost of all dental services. In many cases, the plan will cover a portion of the
procedure, and patients will be responsible for paying the difference. This means that while the
CDCP can help reduce your out-of-pocket expenses, you may still have some costs to cover
depending on the treatment required.
Who Qualifies for the Canadian Dental Care Plan?
As of now, the CDCP is available to certain groups of Canadians, with eligibility expanding over
time. Currently, the plan is available to:
- Seniors
- Children under the age of 18
Eligibility is based on income and whether or not you have access to private dental insurance. The government plans to expand coverage to include additional groups, such as teenagers and individuals with disabilities, in the future.
To check if you or your family qualifies for the CDCP, you can visit the official Canadian Dental Care Plan eligibility page.
How Does the CDCP Work at Dr. Gina Ha & Associates?

Our team will work with you to determine what portion of your dental care is covered by the CDCP and what, if any, additional costs you may need to pay.
