The Canada Dental Benefit is a crucial initiative by the Canadian government to alleviate dental care costs for families earning less than $90,000 annually.
This interim measure specifically targets parents and guardians with children under 12 who lack private dental insurance.
Depending on the family’s adjusted net income, they can receive a tax-free payment ranging from $260 to $650 for each eligible child, with a maximum of two payments per child.
Applications are open until June 30, 2024, for dental care received within the specified period.
The Canada Revenue Agency administers these payments, ensuring that eligible families receive the financial support they need for their children’s dental care.
Whether or not you get a fluoride treatment decides when you can have a post-cleaning meal.
It’s important to note that dental costs fully covered by other government programs do not qualify for this benefit.
At Smiles on Souris, we understand the importance of accessible dental care for every child. The Canada Dental Benefit is a step in the right direction, offering financial relief to families and ensuring that young smiles receive the care they deserve.
We are proud to support this initiative and continue our mission of providing exceptional dental care to all children. Together, we can ensure that every child enjoys the benefits of a healthy, beautiful smile.
