CDCP & IFHP Dental Coverage Calgary SW

Dental Coverage Accepted at Millrise Dental Clinic

At Millrise Dental Clinic, we believe that every patient deserves access to quality dental care — regardless of their financial situation or background. That’s why we proudly accept both the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) and the Interim Federal Health Program (IFHP).

Whether you’re a longtime Calgary resident looking to use your CDCP benefits, or a newcomer covered under the IFHP, our team is here to help you understand your coverage, navigate the process, and receive the dental care you need in a welcoming, stress-free environment.

We offer a full range of covered services — from cleanings and exams to emergency dental care, crowns, and extractions. Our multilingual team speaks English, French, Dari, Farsi, Gujarati, Tagalog, Spanish, Japanese, and Hindi, so you can always feel confident and comfortable during your visit.

Book your appointment today and let us take care of the rest.

Making Dental Care Accessible for Every Patient

We know that navigating government dental programs can feel confusing. Our team is here to make the process simple and straightforward.

When you book your appointment, let us know you are covered under the CDCP or IFHP. We will verify your eligibility, explain what is covered, and handle the paperwork — so you can focus on your health, not the administrative details.

No one should have to put off dental care because of cost. At Millrise Dental Clinic, we are committed to ensuring every patient in SW Calgary receives the care they deserve.
