The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) is a federal government program intended to reduce financial barriers to oral health care for Canadians without dental coverage. The program provides a dental care subsidy for Canadian residents who do not have dental benefits and have an adjusted household income of less than $90,000 a year.

If you have questions about the CDCP or would like to apply, please contact Health Canada at 1-833-537-4342 or visit Canada.ca/dental.

If you have already been approved and have questions about your coverage, please contact the plan administrator, Sun Life, at 1-888-888-8110 or visit https://www.sunlife.ca/sl/cdcp/en
