Federal Dental Insurance Plan Details Unveiled: What You Need to Know

 

 The CDCP is a federal plan that offers dental care benefits to uninsured Canadians with a household income under $90,000. Canadians must meet certain criteria, such as not having access to dental insurance, filing a tax return, and having out-of-pocket expenses for dental care. 

The plan covers various dental services, such as cleaning, fillings, root canal treatments, and dentures. The plan will reimburse a percentage of dental procedures, but some people may have a co-payment depending on their income level.
