Cleaning based on your teeth and gum health
Scaling removes tartar deposits. Polishing removes some surface stains. A dental examination helps determine which services you need, how often to return and whether gum disease requires treatment. Each service has its own coverage rules.
What does the CDCP cover for cleaning in Quebec?
The CDCP does not simply provide “two free cleanings a year.” Coverage depends on your age, the service billed and the care you have already received within the applicable period.
| Service | Usual limit and conditions |
|---|---|
| Scaling | Within 12 months: ½ unit for ages 0–11; 1 unit for ages 12–16; 4 units for ages 17 and over. Additional units require preauthorization. |
| Polishing / prophylaxis | The Quebec grid allows 1 treatment per 12 months. Polishing and scaling are separate services. |
| Fluoride | 1 treatment every 6 months up to age 16; 1 every 12 months from age 17, when clinically indicated. |
| Examination and X-rays | These have limits separate from cleaning. We check eligible services against your treatment history. |
Deep cleaning: Quebec rules for root planing
In Quebec, root planing is a Schedule B service: preauthorization is required. The 2026 grid lists 4 units per 12 months for members aged 17 and over. All Schedule A scaling units must have been claimed before the CDCP will consider root planing.
This is not an automatic extra cleaning allowance. Requests for periodontal care or additional units require a clinical reason. Recent measurements of the gums may be needed to support the request.
What will you pay at Clic Dentaire?
We apply CDCP fees to eligible care without adding a clinic surcharge. Sun Life pays us the covered portion directly. Any official co-payment remains payable by you.
| Confirmed coverage | Your share of eligible CDCP fees |
|---|---|
| 100 % | 0 $ |
| 60 % | 40 % |
| 40 % | 60 % |

Common CDCP questions
How many cleanings are covered each year?
There is no fixed package of visits. Limits apply to individual services and scaling units; several services may take place during one appointment. We check your treatment history with Sun Life.
Do my limits reset on January 1?
No. A 12-month limit is based on the dates of previous services. Changing dental clinics does not reset your treatment history.
Are children’s cleanings covered?
They may be covered when the child has active CDCP coverage, subject to age and frequency limits. Provincial coverage, such as RAMQ, may also affect which plan pays.
Can my cleaning cost $0?
Yes, for eligible care covered at 100%, within plan limits and with any required approval. Official co-payments and services outside coverage may still be payable.
