Canadian Dental Benefit | Affordable Braces

Children need to have regular dental cleanings and care, just as their parents and guardians do. Our orthodontist approaches each child with care and provides their parents and guardians with a customized treatment plan to meet the orthodontic needs of their child. Even better is that the Canadian government is giving your child a new benefit called the Canada Dental Benefit (CDB). Now, your child's orthodontic visits may be covered.

For Children Under 12

In December 2022, the government of Canada announced that eligible families that do not have dental insurance can receive up to $650 per child to cover their dental appointments, however, the amount varies based on their household income. Eligible services include oral surgery, preventive, restorative, endodontic, periodontic, prosthodontic, and orthodontic services.


You can learn more and apply for this benefit through the CRA's website.


It is important to note that the eligible services and the amount of the benefit are both subject to change.

Under $70,000 $650
