How to Find a CDCP Dentist in Mississauga (2024 Guide)
By Bansal Family Dentistry | Canadian Dental Care Plan Provider in Mississauga
If you’re one of the millions of Canadians now eligible for the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP), your first step is finding a participating dentist near you. This guide explains exactly what the CDCP covers, who qualifies, and how to book an appointment at Bansal Family Dentistry — a registered CDCP provider serving Mississauga, Malton, Brampton, and Etobicoke.
What Is the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP)?
The Canadian Dental Care Plan is a federal government program that provides dental coverage to eligible Canadians who do not have access to private dental insurance. Launched in 2024, the plan covers a wide range of dental services including cleanings, X-rays, fillings, extractions, and more — at little or no out-of-pocket cost to eligible patients.
The CDCP is administered through Sun Life Financial on behalf of the Government of Canada. To use your benefits, you must visit a registered CDCP dental provider like Bansal Family Dentistry.

- You filed a tax return in the previous year
- You do not have access to private dental insurance through an employer, union, or school plan
- Your adjusted family net income is under $90,000 per year
