CDCP covers a wide range of essential dental services.

Preventive Dentistry
The foundation of long-term oral health and where most patients begin. These visits catch problems early, before they become costly.
– Dental check-up in Montreal
– Oral examination
– Dental X-rays
– Professional teeth cleaning (scaling)
– Fluoride treatments
– Dental sealants
Restorative Treatments
Cavities don’t wait, and neither should you. The CDCP covers the core restorative procedures most patients need at some point.
– Dental fillings in Montreal
– Tooth restoration
– Temporary fillings
– Treatment for cavities


Root Canal Therapy
When a tooth is infected or badly damaged, root canal treatment saves it. The plan covers this- and in certain cases, more involved follow-up care too.
– Root canal treatment in Montreal
– Emergency endodontic procedures
– Root canal retreatment (with preauthorization)
Gum Disease Treatment
Gum disease is more common than most people realise and more serious than it looks. The CDCP covers the treatments that actually address it not just manage it.
– Periodontal therapy
– Deep cleaning below the gumline
– Gum infection treatment


Extractions and Oral Surgery
Whether it’s a routine removal or an urgent situation, tooth extraction is covered under the plan- including cases that require more involved care.
– Tooth extraction in Montreal
– Wisdom teeth removal
– Emergency tooth extraction
– Oral surgery procedures
Dentures and Major Dental Services
Missing teeth affect more than appearance. The CDCP includes coverage for restorations that restore function and confidence. Crowns, partial dentures, and higher levels of sedation became available through preauthorization from November 2024 onwards.
– Complete dentures
– Partial dentures
– Denture repair
– Dental crowns in Montreal (subject to preauthorization)
– Dental post and core (pivot)


Sedation and Anesthesia
Those who experience anxiety or need more complex treatments can access approved sedation options under the plan.
– Nitrous oxide sedation
– Oral sedation
– Other approved sedation services
Coverage is subject to CDCP guidelines, frequency limits, and preauthorization requirements for certain procedures.
To qualify for the CDCP, you must meet all four conditions:
- Be a Canadian resident
- Not have access to private dental insurance- including through an employer, spouse, pension, or group plan
- Have an adjusted family net income under $90,000
- Have filed your taxes for the previous year
| Adjusted Family Net Income | CDCP Covers |
|---|---|
| Under $70,000 | 100% |
| $70,000 to $79,999 | 60% |
| $80,000 to $89,999 | 40% |
| $90,000 and above | Not eligible |
Eligibility is reassessed annually based on your most recent tax return. If your income changes year to year, your coverage tier may change as well.


Dental Care For Individuals And Families
As a family dentist Montreal patients rely on, we welcome children, adults, and seniors for both routine and urgent dental care. We accept new patients and work with students through the ASEQ network, newcomers to Canada, refugees, and patients on social assistance for treatments covered under RAMQ.
Our clinic is open seven days a week, including Saturday and Sunday, which matters for people who cannot step away during the week. Located near Snowdon and Jewish General Hospital, we also see same-day emergency cases. If you are in pain, call us and we will find a way to get you in.
Beyond The Cdcp
Everything you need may not fall under the plan, and that is fine. We offer Invisalign, clear aligners, cosmetic dentistry, night guards, and teeth grinding treatment for patients exploring those options separately.
Whatever brought you here- a routine visit, an emergency, or finally dealing with something you have been putting off- we’ll tell you clearly what the plan covers, what it does not, and what your options are.


Will I have to pay anything if I’m covered by the CDCP?
Coverage depends on your eligibility and the treatment you receive. Before beginning any procedure, we’ll explain what the CDCP covers and discuss any costs that may not be included- so you can make an informed decision.
