Yes — the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) includes fluoride treatments for both children and adults when deemed clinically necessary. Fluoride helps prevent tooth decay and is a valuable part of preventive care.
Here’s how it works:
🧒 For Children
- Fluoride treatments are commonly covered during routine checkups.
- Typically recommended once per year, depending on age and risk level.
- Especially helpful for children with a history of cavities.
🧑 For Adults
- Fluoride may be covered if you are at higher risk of tooth decay due to:
- Dry mouth
- Receding gums
- Recent dental work or frequent cavities
- Your dentist will assess your needs and document clinical necessity in your chart.
💳 Is There a Cost?
Coverage depends on income:
- 100% covered if income is under $70,000
- 60% or 40% covered for higher income tiers ($70,000–$89,999)
