What is The Canadian Dental Care Plan?
Oral health is important to Canadians’ overall health. Poor oral health can lead to respiratory disease, diabetes complications, cardiovascular disease, stroke, cancer, pregnancy complications, life-threatening infections, and greater mortality from all causes. It can also lead to related mental health issues, reductions in quality of life, and, in extreme cases, employment challenges, social shame, nutritional issues, and isolation.
The Government of Canada is committed to making life more affordable and healthier for Canadians by implementing the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP).
New patients are always welcome. Contact our office at (905) 387-6453
