Vaughan Community Health Centre Corporation - Oral Health

As you may know, the province of Ontario does not provide universal dental health coverage to its residents. In fact, one in three Ontarians does not have dental care insurance of any kind, and one in five does not visit a dentist because they cannot afford it. For example, individuals earning low wages or those unable to afford extended health benefits are without dental insurance and cannot afford to miss days at work to seek care. Seniors who lose dental coverage when they retire and live on a fixed income are also affected by the lack of a publicly funded dental program in Ontario.

There are programs in some municipalities that provide limited access to fill the gap that has been left out of Medicare, but access to these is difficult because of long wait lists. Existing provincial programs provide only a limited range of dental services and omit vulnerable groups of the population.

Vaughan Community Health Centre Corporation - Oral Health is open Monday to Friday: 8:00 am - 8:00 pm.
