Edmonton West Dental is an approved CDCP provider — we verify your eligibility and submit claims directly so you pay little to nothing out of pocket for covered services.

To qualify you must be: a Canadian resident, have filed your taxes, have no access to private dental insurance, and have an adjusted net family income under $90,000.
