Are Dentures Covered under the Federal Dental Insurance Plan?

Book Appointment

Yes, dentures and partials are covered under the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP). This federal program includes a variety of restorative services to help maintain oral health.

Key details regarding coverage for dentures include:

  • Clinical Necessity: Dentures are generally covered when they are deemed clinically necessary for the patient.
  • Pre-approval: These major procedures often require pre-approval or pre-authorization from the government to confirm they meet the plan’s specific clinical criteria.
  • Co-payments: Because dentures fall under restorative care, you will likely be responsible for a co-payment. This amount is calculated based on your adjusted family net income and typically ranges from 10% to 40%.

At Diamond Dental Centre, our team can help you navigate the pre-authorization process and provide a clear cost estimate for your dentures before treatment begins.
