CDCP patient Catherine Hamilton
There was a senior's care plan before, but dentists were not taking it. So, I was happy to see a dentist because I was really suffering. My health was failing, and I didn't have dental coverage.
My name is Catherine Hamilton and I'm a senior and I have received care through the Canadian Dental Care plan.
After having seen my dentist, I'm more confident, I feel great, and now I can go ahead with life again.

CDCP patient Morton Brisard
Before, when I was working, I had insurance for the doctor. I would go at least twice a year. Since my wife and I retired, we go as little as possible. After we got the Government of Canada's dental service, we started to go to the dentist as much as possible. We're going to take advantage of it. It would help everyone save money, time and their health.

CDCP patient Susan Sikala
I'm turning 76 in a week, and if you saw me a few months ago, you would have thought this woman hasn't smiled in years, and here I am.
I haven't actually seen a dentist for about 11 years because I was going through cancer treatment. I had a dentist and I had some assessments done. I was asked, could you afford?
And I said, well, if I don't eat, I could probably afford dental work, you know? So, I was like… desperate, desperate to find another way. Once this program came out, I was so excited.
It's an opportunity for everyone in Canada to have the dental care that they require, I'm just so happy.
