CDCP Dentist in Scarborough

Not necessarily — CDCP helps with the cost of eligible dental care, but coverage depends on your specific income band and plan details set by the federal government. Some treatments or portions of treatment may fall outside what your plan covers. We confirm what we know about your coverage and give you an exact written quote before any treatment begins.

Eligibility is determined by the federal government based on factors like residency status, whether you have private dental insurance, and your family's net income. You would typically receive a confirmation letter or be able to check your status through the federal CDCP program directly. We are happy to help once you have your CDCP details, but we cannot confirm eligibility ourselves.

Coverage is organized into broad categories that can include preventive care like exams and cleanings, diagnostic imaging, and a range of other treatments depending on your specific plan. Exactly what applies to you depends on your individual coverage details, which we recommend confirming directly through your CDCP plan information.

This depends on your coverage tier and the treatment being provided. Some patients have little to no out-of-pocket cost for covered services, while others may have a portion owing depending on their income band. We always let you know what to expect in writing before treatment, so there are no surprises.

Yes, where applicable our office can submit claims directly to CDCP on your behalf, which saves you from having to manage that paperwork yourself. Bring your CDCP member details when you book so our team can look into the process ahead of your visit.

This depends on how your existing coverage interacts with CDCP eligibility rules, which are set by the federal government. In general, having private dental insurance can affect your CDCP eligibility, so it is worth reviewing your specific situation through the official CDCP program details before assuming both apply.

That is common, and it is exactly what our team is here to help sort through. Let us know you are a CDCP member when you book, and we will look into what is on file for your plan and explain it in plain terms before any treatment is scheduled.

Age alone does not guarantee eligibility — CDCP eligibility for any age group, including seniors, is based on residency status, existing dental insurance, and family net income as assessed by the federal government. Many seniors do qualify, but confirming your specific status is done through the official CDCP program rather than through our office.

Yes, we welcome new patients with CDCP coverage. Call our office and let us know you have CDCP so we can look into your plan details and get you booked. We are open seven days a week, including Sundays, which can make scheduling easier for families and seniors alike.

If you live or work in Scarborough or the east end of Toronto, yes. Cedarbrae Dental Center is a CDCP dentist on Lawrence Avenue East, just east of Markham Road, with free parking and the 54 and 954 Lawrence East buses at the door. We welcome new CDCP patients seven days a week, including Sundays, so it is easier to find a time that fits around work, school, or a caregiver's schedule.

Yes, we welcome patients with IFHP coverage. The Interim Federal Health Program is a federal plan that provides limited dental coverage for refugees, refugee claimants, and protected persons, and eligibility is set by the government rather than by our office. Bring your IFHP details when you book, and our front desk will help you understand what is generally covered and what to expect before any treatment begins.
