About the CDCP in Canada
The goal of the CDCP is to help families pay for dental care and get the treatments and services they need. It promotes prevention and general dental maintenance.
Not all dentists participate with CDCP, but it’s good to establish care with one who does. Even if you don’t need or qualify for these benefits, you might in the future.
Our dentist in North York, ON, is pleased to partner with CDCP to help make dentistry accessible to more patients.
