New Brunswick Social Development - The Healthy Smiles, Clear Vision

Healthy Smiles, Clear Vision is New Brunswicks dental and vision plan for children of low-income families. Implemented in September 2012, the program was developed based on recommendations made by the Advisory Committee on Health Benefits, one of three committees established to address key issues in New Brunswicks fight against poverty. This plan will provide the necessary coverage for specified dental and vision benefits as follows: Dental: The dental program will cover basic items, such as regular exams, X-rays and extractions, with some focus on preventative treatments such as sealants and fluoride treatments. Vision: The vision program will cover basic items such as yearly exam, lenses and frames. *Please note: For children with dental and vision coverage through the Department of Social Development, coverage will be automatically transferred to the Healthy Smiles, Clear Vision plan and, as such, there is no need for Social Development clients to apply.
