CDCP Dentist in Vancouver
Sasamat Dental welcomes patients covered by the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) in Vancouver. Our team helps you understand your coverage and makes booking simple — in the language you’re most comfortable in.
What is CDCP Dentist?
The CDCP is a federal program that helps eligible Canadian residents without private dental insurance afford dental care. It covers a range of services — exams, cleanings, fillings, X-rays and more — based on your eligibility.

Recovery
CDCP is about coverage, not a procedure — there’s nothing to recover from. We simply make sure your covered care is straightforward and clearly explained.
Cost
What you pay depends on your household income tier — the CDCP covers a set percentage and you may have a co-payment. There can be a small difference between the plan’s rates and the BC Dental Fee Guide; we explain any out-of-pocket amount before treatment, with no surprises.
Insurance & coverage
CDCP is itself the coverage. If you also have other benefits, we’ll help coordinate them. Not sure if you qualify? Call us and we’ll point you to how to check and apply.
