How to Find a Dentist That Accepts CDCP Insurance Near You

Step 1: Confirm Your Eligibility

Before searching for a dentist, verify that you're enrolled in CDCP through your My Service Canada Account or by calling 1-833-537-4342. You should have received a CDCP welcome package and insurance card.

Step 2: Search on DrGreat

1. Go to drgreat.ca
2. Enter your city or postal code in the location field
3. Click the Insurance filter and select CDCP
4. Toggle Accepting new patients to on
5. Browse clinic profiles — look for the green CDCP badge on verified listings

Step 3: Review the Clinic Profile

• Verified badge — confirms the clinic owner has claimed and verified their listing
• Languages spoken — important if you prefer care in a language other than English or French
• Patient reviews — read recent reviews to understand other patients' experiences with CDCP billing

Step 4: Call to Confirm CDCP Direct Billing

Even if a clinic is listed as CDCP-accepting, it's worth calling ahead to confirm they offer direct billing (submitting claims directly to Sun Life on your behalf). Some clinics accept CDCP but require patients to pay upfront and claim reimbursement themselves.

What to Bring to Your First Appointment

• Your CDCP member card (or your CDCP member ID number)
• Government-issued photo ID
• Any previous dental records or X-rays if available
