- Lack of access to private dental insurance.
- Adjusted family net income below $90,000.
- Canadian residency for tax purposes.
- Having filed a tax return in the previous year.
Note: Canadian residents who have access to dental coverage through a social program offered by a province or territory and/or the federal government can still qualify for the CDCP if they meet all the eligibility criteria.

Applications will open in phases, starting with seniors aged 87 and above in December 2023, followed by other age groups through mid-2024. Eligible individuals 70+ will receive a letter with an application code and instructions. Online applications for other groups will be available from May 2024.
