The Program
Understanding the Canada Dental Care Plan
At Spire Dental Care Langley, we believe everyone deserves access to quality oral health care — regardless of their financial situation. That's why we're proud to be part of the Canada Dental Care Plan (CDCP), a federal initiative making dental treatment more affordable for eligible Canadians. Whether you're a senior on a fixed income, a busy parent with young children, or someone who hasn't seen a dentist in years due to cost — we're here to help.
The Canada Dental Care Plan (CDCP) represents a significant step forward in making dental care accessible to all Canadians. At Spire Dental Care, we're proud to be a participating provider, helping our patients navigate this important program and access the dental care they need without financial barriers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about the Canada Dental Care Plan — eligibility, coverage, and how it works at our clinic.
Eligibility
Who is eligible for the Canada Dental Care Plan?
The Canada Dental Care Plan is available to Canadian residents who have an annual family income below $90,000 and do not have access to dental insurance. The program is now open to eligible Canadians of all ages. Eligibility is verified through CRA tax returns and requires proof of no existing dental coverage.
How do I verify my eligibility?
You can verify your eligibility through the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) My Account portal, by phone, or by visiting our office where our staff can help guide you through the verification process. You'll need information about your income, existing dental coverage, and household members.
Can I apply if I have partial dental coverage?
If you have partial dental coverage through an employer or private plan, you may still be eligible for supplementary coverage through the CDCP. The program is designed to fill gaps in existing coverage for eligible Canadians.
Coverage
What dental services are covered under the CDCP?
The CDCP covers essential dental services including preventive care (check-ups, cleanings), diagnostic services (X-rays), restorative treatments (fillings), endodontics (root canals), periodontics (gum treatments), prosthodontics (dentures), oral surgery, and orthodontics when medically necessary. Coverage limits vary based on age and treatment category.
Are there any limitations or annual maximums with the CDCP?
Yes, the CDCP has annual coverage limits based on age groups and specific treatment categories. Our experienced team will help you understand these limitations and develop a treatment plan that maximizes your benefits while ensuring you receive comprehensive dental care. We can also discuss payment options for any services not covered by the program.
Are cosmetic dental procedures covered?
Generally, purely cosmetic procedures are not covered under the CDCP. The plan focuses on essential dental services that maintain or restore oral health. However, some procedures that have both functional and aesthetic benefits may be partially covered.
Process
How do I apply for the Canada Dental Care Plan?
You can apply for the CDCP through the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) My Account portal, by phone, or by mail.

Our staff at Spire Dental Care can help guide you through the application process and verify your eligibility.
How does billing work with the CDCP at your clinic?
As a participating provider, we handle the billing process directly with the CDCP program. In most cases, eligible patients won't need to pay upfront for covered services.
