Can I apply for CDSP if I am already enrolling another government program?

If you are enrolling under other government dental programs (Healthy Smiles Ontario, Ontario Disability Support Program) and you are eligible for the CDCP, you can apply. Both benefits will be coordinated between the programs, so that your coverage will not be identical.

Services that will be cover by CDCP

Covered services could include: 

• Fillings, root canals, dentures 
• Extractions and other oral surgery 
• Cleaning and other preventative services 
• Exams and x-rays 
• Other preventative, restorative, and dental treatment services  

Some dental services (e.g. crowns, deep sedation) will require preauthorization through your dentist to confirm that you’ll be covered under the CDCP. These will only become available in November 2024.
