Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about dentists in Canada
How often should I visit the dentist?
The Canadian Dental Association recommends visiting your dentist at least once a year for a check-up and professional cleaning, though many dentists recommend every six months. Patients with gum disease, a history of cavities, or other oral health conditions may need more frequent visits.
Is dental care covered by provincial health insurance in Canada?
Basic dental care is generally not covered by provincial health plans for adults in most provinces. However, many Canadians have coverage through employer-sponsored extended health benefits. The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP), launched in 2024, provides coverage for eligible residents without existing dental insurance who have a household income under $90,000.
What should I do if I have a dental emergency?
Contact your dentist immediately — many dental clinics reserve time for same-day emergency patients or have after-hours phone lines. Common dental emergencies include a knocked-out tooth (keep it moist and see a dentist within 30 minutes), severe toothache, broken or cracked teeth, and lost fillings or crowns. For uncontrolled bleeding or facial swelling affecting breathing, go to the emergency room.
How much does a dental cleaning cost in Canada?
A routine dental cleaning and exam typically costs between $200 and $400 without insurance, depending on the province and the complexity of the cleaning. Dental fees are set by provincial fee guides, though dentists are not required to follow them. Many clinics offer payment plans for patients without insurance.
At what age should children first visit the dentist?
The Canadian Dental Association recommends a child's first dental visit within six months of their first tooth erupting, or by their first birthday. Early visits help identify potential issues and establish good oral hygiene habits. Many pediatric dentists specialize in making first visits comfortable for young children.
How do I find a good dentist in Canada?
Look for a dentist who is a member of the Canadian Dental Association and registered with your provincial dental college. ClinicFinder.ca lets you compare patient ratings, check hours, and read reviews for dentists in your area. Consider factors like location, office hours, services offered, and whether the office staff speak your preferred language.
