Step 1: Check If You Qualify for Government Dental Coverage
Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP)
If you do not have private dental insurance and your family income is under $90,000/year, you are likely eligible for the CDCP. Coverage ranges from 40–100% depending on income. We are a CDCP participating provider — direct Sun Life billing with no upfront payment for covered services.
- Income under $70,000: 100% coverage, $0 out-of-pocket
- Income $70,000–$79,999: 60% coverage
- Income $80,000–$89,999: 40% coverage
Enroll at canada.ca/dental or call 1-833-537-4342. Processing takes 2–4 weeks.
Ontario Seniors Dental Care Program (OSDCP)
Seniors 70+ with net income under $22,200 (single) or $37,100 (couple) receive free routine dental care. Red Rose Dentistry accepts OSDCP.
Healthy Smiles Ontario
Children in low-income families are eligible for free dental care under Healthy Smiles Ontario. Income thresholds apply — apply at ontario.ca/healthysmiles.
Step 2: Know What Things Actually Cost at Red Rose Dentistry
We do not operate on hidden fees. Here are our standard service ranges for uninsured patients:
| Service | Typical Cost |
|---|---|
| Dental exam (new patient) | $90–$130 |
| Bitewing X-rays | $50–$100 |
| Professional cleaning | $100–$180 |
| Composite filling | $150–$400 depending on size |
| Tooth extraction (simple) | $150–$280 |
| Root canal (molar) | $900–$1,400 |
| Dental crown | $1,000–$1,800 |
Step 3: Payment Plans for Uninsured Patients
For larger treatment costs, we offer flexible payment arrangements and can refer you to dental financing providers for extended payment terms. We would rather discuss a payment plan that lets you get necessary treatment than have you defer care until the problem is more expensive to fix.
