Tsawwassen Family Dental is a CDCP provider for patients in Delta and the surrounding area. The Canadian Dental Care Plan helps eligible Canadians access more affordable dental care, and our clinic works directly with Health Canada to process your benefits.
Launched in December 2023, the Canadian Dental Care Plan provides essential dental care coverage to Canadian residents with adjusted family net income below $90,000 annually and without private dental insurance. The CDCP covers a wide range of dental services including preventive care (cleanings, exams, fluoride treatments), basic procedures (fillings, extractions), and some major treatments (crowns, dentures) based on clinical necessity. At our Delta clinic, we work directly with Health Canada to process your CDCP benefits, ensuring you receive the maximum coverage available for your dental care needs.
| What CDCP covers, based on your income | ||
| Adjusted family net income | Your co-payment | What CDCP pays |
| Under $70,000 | No co-payment | 100% of the CDCP fee |
| $70,000 – $79,999 | 40% | 60% of the CDCP fee |
| $80,000 – $89,999 | 60% | 40% of the CDCP fee |
| $90,000 or more | Not eligible | — |
These percentages apply to the CDCP fee guide, which can be lower than a dentist’s usual fee. If a service costs more than the CDCP rate, or isn’t covered by the plan, you may pay the difference on top of any co-payment. We always go over this with you before treatment starts, so you know your exact cost up front.
