Through the Government of Canada, the Canada Dental Benefit helps lower dental costs for eligible families earning less than $90,000 per year. Parents and guardians paying for dental care for a child under 12 years old who does not have access to private dental insurance may be eligible for the program. Based on your adjusted family net income, a tax-free payment of $260, $390, or $650 is available for each eligible child.

Applications are open until June 30, 2024 for:

• dental care received between July 1, 2023, and June 30, 2024
• one additional payment if you meet the criteria
