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.

Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP)

The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) is a federal government program that helps uninsured Canadians access essential dental services. At Millrise Dental Clinic, we are a proud participating provider, offering covered services including exams, cleanings, fillings, crowns, and emergency care.

Millrise Dental Clinic was recommended to me by a family member who has been a client for many years. I found them to be efficient, very friendly and have done great work. Based on my recent appointments I would recommend them as well!

I have been going to this dental office for years. I find Stacey, my hygienist, to be professional and caring, and would highly recommend her to anyone. With her many years of experience she has a gentle touch and is fabulous! Dr Ladha, in my limited time with him, is very kind and friendly. I am blessed with great teeth in part because of this clinic so have spent no real time in his chair other than check ups. He has always been willing to patiently listen to my concerns, and guide me in the right direction. I would highly recommend this practice to anyone!
