Why have regular dental exams?

An exam allows your dentist to check your teeth, gums and the tissues in your mouth. It helps identify cavities, gum disease and other problems early, before they require more extensive treatment. Regular follow-up helps reduce emergencies and makes care simpler.

What an exam at Clic Dentaire includes

  • Complete clinical examination: your teeth, gums and oral tissues.
  • Cavity detection: identifying tooth decay early.
  • Gum assessment: checking for signs of gingivitis or periodontitis.
  • X-rays when needed: checking areas that cannot be seen with the naked eye.

Is the exam covered by the CDCP?

Yes. Dental exams are among the essential services covered by the plan, subject to its frequency limits. What you pay at the clinic depends on your coverage:

100% coverage

Adjusted family net income under $70,000

No additional charge beyond the amount reimbursed by the CDCP for eligible covered care.

Partial coverage

Income from $70,000 to $89,999

You pay only the official co-payment of 40% or 60%, based on the CDCP fee schedule.

Direct billing: we submit your claim directly to Sun Life. You do not need to advance the amount covered by the plan or apply for reimbursement.

To check eligibility, visit the official Canadian Dental Care Plan website.

How often should you have an exam?

The recommended frequency depends on your oral health; many patients have an exam once or twice a year. The CDCP has frequency limits. At your visit, we confirm what applies to your situation before providing care.
