A: If you’re looking for extra funding, Ontario Dental Association (ODA) Members are among the first to receive benefits. ODA members benefit from a multitude of benefits and discounts, including financial assistance to attend certain types of continuing education courses, discounted membership fees, access to special offers and a discount on professional dues.


The Dental Health Branch is responsible for distributing the Community Care Access Programs’ (CCAP) annual funding. These funds support access to publicly funded dental care and cover approximately 95% of dentists and 75% of general practice providers who serve underinsured individuals or uninsured groups.

A: Dental false teeth are affordable and convenient. One of the reasons why they are more attractive is because they fit easily under natural teeth or can be removed without causing damage. They look really smart because they match your mouth perfectly.

Putting a complete denture requires expertise and skill because it involves shaping and adjusting the bone, gum tissues, and soft tissue structures. It has many implications such as the way the teeth are aligned, the position of the lips, and the health of surrounding jawbone structure. In addition, the dental procedure can affect speech and overall facial appearance.

A: Senior dental care may be covered at no cost under certain circumstances. Depending on whether the person you visit has private insurance or Medicare and what kind of problem they’re dealing with, there could be additional costs associated with care. It’s often worth it to consult qualified dentists who offer senior dental care because of the benefits available.


The majority of Canadians have dental coverage from private insurance companies or a public system. As a result, there is no free dental care for patients under 65. However, public health insurance programs do offer dental coverage, especially for low-income individuals.
