Need a CDCP Dentist? Here’s How to Get Covered Care in Edmonton

Edmonton, Canada - June 30, 2025 / Lumos Dental /

Edmonton, AB — Lumos Dental, a trusted dental care provider in Edmonton, is now accepting patients under the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP). This move supports individuals and families looking for cost-effective dental services through a government-supported program designed to remove financial barriers to care. With a clear focus on community health and accessibility, Lumos Dental aims to make oral health services more accessible for those eligible under the CDCP. From routine check-ups to emergency dental procedures, the clinic provides full support with program coordination and delivers the care patients require.

What is the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP)?

The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) is a federally funded initiative designed to assist Canadians who may struggle to afford dental care. It supports seniors, children, and adults living with disabilities—groups that often face challenges accessing oral health services. The plan reduces the cost of dental treatments by covering preventive and essential procedures.

The CDCP is part of a growing movement to prioritize oral health as a key element of overall well-being. Many dental conditions can worsen over time without timely care, leading to more serious health issues. Programs like CDCP are designed to help patients avoid delays in treatment and improve long-term outcomes.

Benefits of CDCP for Eligible Canadians

Lumos Dental offers a wide range of dental services under the CDCP, helping patients reduce costs and receive consistent care. Covered services include:

  • Regular dental exams and professional cleanings

  • Fillings and tooth extractions

  • Emergency pain management

  • Periodontal therapy

  • Wisdom teeth removal

  • Orthodontic treatment like Invisalign for qualified individuals

At Lumos Dental, patients benefit from reduced upfront expenses. The clinic offers direct billing to the program, removing the need for complex insurance paperwork or claim submissions.

Who Can Apply for CDCP Support?

Eligibility for the Canadian Dental Care Plan is based on age, disability status, and Canadian residency. It is designed to support:

  • Seniors who may have increased oral health needs

  • Children who require early dental care to prevent long-term issues

  • Adults living with disabilities who may face added challenges in accessing treatment

Lumos Dental helps patients understand if they qualify and guides them through the enrollment process. With support from trained staff, patients can feel confident in their coverage and care.
