The Canadian Dental Care Plan is now available to millions more, with coverage starting in June. Here's who's eligible
The federal government has expanded the eligibility for its Canadian Dental Care Plan, providing access to millions of more people across the country for affordable oral health services. The dental plan, now in its second year, originally prioritized seniors over 70 and has since expanded in phases over May to include 55- to 64-year-olds, 18- to 34-year-olds and now 35- to-54-year-olds who meet the program requirements. Coverage will be available as early as Sunday, June 1, the government said in a release in March. The dental plan, now in its second year, originally prioritized seniors over 70 and has since expanded in phases to include 55- to 64-year-olds, 18- to 34-year-olds and now 35- to-54-year-olds who meet the program requirements. Coverage will be available as early as Sunday, the government said in an release in March . In the program's first year, more than 3.4 million Canadians were approved to be part of the plan, with a total of 1.7 million people having accessed care, according to the government of Canada. The dental-care program, which was first rolled out in December 2023, was the result of the supply-and-confidence agreement signed by the NDP and the minority Liberal government in 2022. The Canadian Dental Plan is a federal government program meant to help uninsured Canadians access dental care at little or no cost. While the goal of the Canadian Dental Care Plan is to make dental care more affordable for everyone, services may not be completely free, with the level of coverage depending on your own household income. Under the dental plan, a household with a total annual income of less than $70,000 would have dental services fully covered — or 100 per cent of the cost of the services. For a household with an annual income between $70,000 and $79,999, 60 per cent of the costs of the eligible dental services would be covered. If your annual household income is between $80,000 and $89,999, 40 per cent of the costs of the eligible dental services would be covered. Households with an annual income above $90,000 are not eligible. To qualify, you need to: You'll need to provide the following information to apply for the plan : If you enrolled in the dental plan before May 1, 2025, you need to apply to renew your coverage. If you renew after June 1, your coverage will end on June 30, 2025 and you could face gaps in your coverage. After applying to renew, you will receive a letter confirming whether you remain eligible under the plan, with coverage effective from the renewal start date and valid until June 30, 2026.

To qualify, applicants must be Canadian residents for tax purposes, not have access to private dental insurance (for example, through employer or pension plans), have filed their 2024 tax return (and partner's if applicable) and have a net income less than $90,000. These criteria aim to make dental care more affordable for people without access to private insurance, particularly targeting low- and middle-income Canadians , Ottawa says. The CDCP reduces or eliminates out-of-pocket costs for essential dental services. This could be beneficial for families and individuals who have delayed or avoided dental visits due to cost, enabling them to receive regular check-ups and timely treatments. With the expansion, more Canadians will be able to access preventive services like cleanings and check-ups , which help reduce the risk of severe dental issues and improve long-term oral health outcomes. While the plan covers many essential services, not all treatments are included, and some patients may still face balance billing if the cost of care exceeds the plan's reimbursement rates, says the RCDSO . However, the expansion is expected to make dental care more affordable and accessible for eligible Canadians. The annual reimbursement limit has increased from $2,500 to $3,000 per year as of Jan. 1, 2025, with further increases planned by 2027. Coverage for major restorative services (such as complete or partial dentures and crowns) has increased to 65 per cent for eligible individuals aged 23 and above, up from previous levels. Several new dental services are now covered, including tomography, oral surgery anesthesia, injections and assessments for temporomandibular joint (jaw) disorders, and orthodontic services (covered only in cases of strict medical need and with pre-authorization; subject to a maximum spending limit). Some services, especially those beyond established frequency limits, require preauthorization by the CDCP. Not all requests will be approved , and patients may still choose to pay out of pocket for non-covered procedures. Current CDCP members must renew their coverage for the upcoming period. Renewal applications must be submitted by June 1, 2025, to avoid any interruption in benefits. Coverage will end on June 30, 2025, for people who do not renew, and any dental services received during a lapse will not be reimbursed.

Dentalcorp Reports First Quarter 2025 Results
TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--dentalcorp Holdings Ltd. ('Dentalcorp' or the 'Company') (TSX: DNTL), Canada's largest and one of North America's fastest growing networks of dental practices, today announced its financial and operating results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025, reaffirmed the full year 2025 guidance previously provided in the Company's news release dated March 21, 2025, and announced its outlook for the second quarter of 2025. All financial figures are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated. 'Our teams across the country delivered another quarter of strong results, with revenue and Adjusted EBITDA growth of approximately 10% and 11%, respectively, over the first quarter of 2024, and setting new highs for both metrics. We continued to realize operating leverage across the business, with first quarter Adjusted EBITDA Margin expanding 20 basis points over the first quarter of 2024 to 18.5%, marking our fourth consecutive quarter of year-over-year Adjusted EBITDA Margin expansion,' said Graham Rosenberg, CEO and Chairman of Dentalcorp. 'We generated a record $44.3 million in Adjusted Free Cash Flow in the first quarter of 2025, representing an increase of approximately 26% over the first quarter of 2024,' Rosenberg continued. 'This led to continued deleveraging, with our Net Debt / PF Adjusted EBITDA after rent Ratio decreasing to 3.77x, a reduction of 0.57x from the first quarter of 2024, marking our sixth consecutive quarter of deleveraging,' Rosenberg said. 'Following a strong first quarter of 2025 that exceeded expectations, we're carrying this momentum into the second quarter, anticipating SPRG of 3.0% to 5.0%, revenue growth of 9.0% to 10.0%, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin expansion of 20 basis points over the second quarter of 2024, to 18.7%,' Nate Tchaplia, President and Chief Financial Officer said. 'During the first quarter of 2025, we acquired 12 new practices that are expected to generate $8.3 million in PF Adjusted EBITDA after rent, at an average multiple of 7.4x, and as of today, have closed on or signed LOIs for acquisitions representing 70% of our annual target,' Tchaplia continued. 'With regards to the federal government's Canadian Dental Care Plan ('CDCP'), we have treated over 95,000 CDCP patients with 95% of our practices currently accepting CDCP patients. During the first quarter of 2025, the federal government announced that the 18-64 age cohort will be eligible to receive treatment under the program as of June 1, 2025. This announcement led to some visit deferrals in the quarter and we expect this to continue until these new eligible patients can begin their treatment,' Tchaplia concluded. 'We are reaffirming our full year 2025 guidance, where we expect to see SPRG of 3.0% to 5.0%, an accelerated pace of M&A with acquisitions representing $25 million+ of PF Adjusted EBITDA after rent, Pre-tax Adjusted Free Cash flow per Share growth of 15%+, and another year of Adjusted EBITDA Margin expansion of 20+ basis points,' said Rosenberg.

See the 'Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures and Ratios' section of this release for definitions and quantitative reconciliations. Expand Conference Call Notification The Company will hold a conference call to provide a business update on Monday, May 12, 2025, at 8:30 a.m. ET. A question-and-answer session will follow the business update. Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures and Ratios As appropriate, we supplement our results of operations determined in accordance with IFRS with certain non-IFRS and other financial measures and ratios that we believe these non-IFRS and other financial measures are useful to investors, lenders and others in assessing our performance and highlighting trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. Our management also uses non-IFRS measures for purposes of comparing to prior periods; preparing annual operating budgets; developing future projections and earnings growth prospects; measuring the profitability of ongoing operations; analyzing our financial condition, business performance and trends, including the operating performance of the business after taking into consideration the acquisitions of dental practices; and determining components of employee compensation. As such, these measures are provided as additional information to complement IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from management's perspective, including how we evaluate our financial performance and how we manage our capital structure. We also believe that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use these non-IFRS and other financial measures and industry metrics in the evaluation of issuers. These non-IFRS and other financial measures are not recognized measures under IFRS, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS, may include or exclude certain items as compared to similar IFRS measures and may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures reported by other companies. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. For further information on non-IFRS and other financial measures and ratios, including the most directly comparable IFRS measures, composition of the measures, a description of how we use these measures, an explanation of how these measures are useful to investors and applicable reconciliations, refer to the 'Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures', 'Non-IFRS Financial Measures', 'Non-IFRS Ratios' and 'Certain Supplementary Financial Measures' sections of management's discussion and analysis of operations for the three months and year ended March 31, 2025, which is available on the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at EBITDA 'EBITDA' means, for the applicable period, net loss and comprehensive loss plus (a) net finance costs, (b) income tax expense (recovery), and (c) depreciation and amortization. Management does not use EBITDA as a financial performance metric, but we present EBITDA to assist investors in understanding the mathematical development of Adjusted EBITDA and Same Practice EBITDA Growth. The most comparable IFRS measure to EBITDA is Net loss and comprehensive loss, for which a reconciliation is provided below. Adjusted EBITDA 'Adjusted EBITDA' is calculated by adding to EBITDA certain expenses, costs, charges or benefits incurred in such period which in management's view are either not indicative of underlying business performance or impact the ability to assess the operating performance of our business, including: (a) net impact of unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses on non-cash balances; (b) share-based compensation; (c) external acquisition expenses; (d) change in fair value of financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss; (e) other corporate costs; (f) loss on disposal of dental practices; (g) loss on disposal and impairment of property and equipment and intangible assets; (h) loss on settlement of other receivables; (i) impairment of right-of-use assets; (j) post-employment benefits; and (k) short-term benefits. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure used by management and other users of our financial statements to assess the financial performance of our business without regard to the effects of interest, depreciation and amortization costs, expenses that are not considered reflective of underlying business performance, and other expenses that are expected to be one-time or non-recurring. We use Adjusted EBITDA to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period and to provide for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. The most comparable IFRS measure to Adjusted EBITDA is Net loss and comprehensive loss. Adjusted EBITDA Margin 'Adjusted EBITDA Margin' means Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. We use Adjusted EBITDA Margin to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period and to provide for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business.

(c) Represents the loss on disposal of dental practices that were disposed of during the reporting period. (d) Represents post-employment benefits provided to the Company's former President. Expand Adjusted Free Cash Flow 'Adjusted free cash flow' is calculated by adding or subtracting from cash flow from operating activities: (a) external acquisition expenses; (b) other corporate costs; (c) post-employment benefits; (d) short-term benefits; (e) repayment of principal on leases; (f) maintenance capital expenditure; and (g) changes in working capital. We use Adjusted free cash flow to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period, to provide for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business, and to determine components of employee compensation. The most comparable IFRS measure to Adjusted free cash flow is cash flow from operating activities, for which a reconciliation is provided below. (a) Represents professional fees and other expenses paid to third parties that are incurred in connection with individual practice acquisitions and are not related to the underlying business operations of the Company. (b) Represents costs associated with the implementation of new corporate technology systems, the undertaking of vendor consolidations, termination benefits and restructuring activities, and professional fees related to the settlement of the management loan program and issuance of preferred shares, executive search arrangements, other non-recurring capital market initiatives and the implementation of the CDCP.

(c) Represents post-employment benefits provided to the Company's former President. (d) Represents capital expenditures for general maintenance and safety compliance of dental practices for the reporting period. (e) Represents the change in non-cash working capital items for the reporting period. Expand Adjusted free cash flow per Share 'Adjusted free cash flow per Share' means Adjusted free cash flow divided by the total number of Shares on a fully diluted basis. Adjusted free cash flow per Share is utilized to determine components of employee compensation. Pre-tax Adjusted Free Cash Flow 'Pre-tax Adjusted free cash flow' in respect of a period means Adjusted free cash flow less cash income tax (recovery) expense. We use Pre-tax Adjusted free cash flow to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period, to provide for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business, and to determine components of employee compensation. The most comparable IFRS measure to Pre-tax Adjusted free cash flow is cash flow from operating activities. Pre-tax Adjusted Free Cash Flow per Share 'Pre-tax Adjusted free cash flow per Share' means Pre-tax Adjusted free cash flow, divided by the total number of Shares on a fully diluted basis. Pre-tax Adjusted free cash flow per Share is utilized to determine components of employee compensation. Adjusted Net Income 'Adjusted net income' is calculated by adding to Net loss and comprehensive loss certain expenses, costs, charges or benefits incurred in such period which in management's view are either not indicative of underlying business performance or impact the ability to assess the operating performance of our business, including: (a) amortization of intangible assets; (b) share-based compensation; (c) change in fair value of contingent consideration; (d) external acquisition expenses; (e) other corporate costs; (f) loss on disposal of dental practices; (g) change in fair value of preferred shares; (h) loss on disposal and impairment of property and equipment and intangible assets; (i) loss on settlement of other receivables; (j) impairment of right-of-use assets; (k) loss on modification of borrowings; (l) post-employment benefits; (m) short-term benefits; (n) change in fair value of other financial liability; and (o) the tax impact of the above. We use Adjusted net income to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period and to provide for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. The most comparable IFRS measure to Adjusted net income is Net loss and comprehensive loss, for which a reconciliation is provided below. (a) On acquisition, and at each subsequent reporting date, obligations under earn-out arrangements are measured at fair value with the changes in fair value recognized in the condensed interim consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss. (b) The Company has several De novo practices whereby the Company has issued certain put and call options over the Associate Dentists' profit rights, which have been classified as a financial liability at FVTPL. At each reporting date, changes in fair value are recognized in the condensed interim consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss. (c) At each reporting date, the Company's investment in the Management Preferred Shares, which are classified as a financial asset at FVTPL, are revalued with changes in fair value recognized in the condensed interim consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss. (d) Represents professional fees and other expenses paid to third parties that are incurred in connection with individual practice acquisitions and are not related to the underlying business operations of the Company. (e) Represents costs associated with the implementation of new corporate technology systems, the undertaking of vendor consolidations, termination benefits and restructuring activities, and professional fees related to the settlement of the management loan program and issuance of preferred shares, executive search arrangements, other non-recurring capital market initiatives and the implementation of the CDCP. Also included are costs associated with the purchase of profit rights held by Associate dentists in the cash flows of our dental practices and losses of dental practices that were disposed of during the period. (f) Represents the loss on disposal of dental practices that were disposed of during the reporting period. (g) Represents the loss on modification of the Company's outstanding credit facilities upon entering into an amended and restated credit agreement. (h) Represents post-employment benefits provided to the Company's former President. Expand PF Adjusted EBITDA 'PF Adjusted EBITDA' in respect of a period means Adjusted EBITDA for that period plus the Company's estimate of the additional Adjusted EBITDA that it would have recorded if it had acquired each of the dental practices that it acquired during that period on the first day of that period, calculated in accordance with the methodology described in the reconciliation table in 'Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures'. Both creditors and the Company use PF Adjusted EBITDA to assess our borrowing capacity, which management believes, given the highly acquisitive nature of our business, is more reflective of our operating performance. We also use PF Adjusted EBITDA to determine components of employee compensation. The most comparable IFRS measure to PF Adjusted EBITDA is Net loss and comprehensive loss. (a) Represents the additional Adjusted EBITDA that we estimate would have been recorded if the Company's dental practice acquisitions had occurred on the first day of the applicable reporting period. These estimates are based on the amount of Practice-Level EBITDA budgeted by us to be earned by the relevant practices at the time of their acquisition by us. There can be no assurance that if we had acquired these practices on the first day of the applicable reporting period, they would have actually generated such budgeted Practice-Level EBITDA, nor is this estimate indicative of future results. Expand PF Adjusted EBITDA after rent 'PF Adjusted EBITDA after rent' in respect of a period means PF Adjusted EBITDA less interest and principal repayments on leases and lease interest and principal repayments on acquisitions. Both creditors and the Company use PF Adjusted EBITDA after rent to assess our borrowing capacity, which management believes, given the highly acquisitive nature of our business, is more reflective of our operating performance. The most comparable IFRS measure to PF Adjusted EBITDA after rent is Net loss and comprehensive loss. PF Revenue 'PF Revenue' in respect of a period means revenue for that period plus the Company's estimate of the additional revenue that it would have recorded if it had acquired each of the dental practices that it acquired during that period on the first day of that period. Given the highly acquisitive nature of our business, management believes PF Revenue is more reflective of our operating performance. We use PF Revenue to determine components of employee compensation. The most comparable IFRS measure to PF Revenue is revenue. Net debt / PF Adjusted EBITDA after rent Ratio 'Net debt / PF Adjusted EBITDA after rent Ratio' means non-current borrowings divided by PF Adjusted EBITDA after rent. We use Net debt / PF Adjusted EBITDA after rent Ratio to assess our borrowing capacity. Same Practice Revenue Growth 'Same Practice Revenue Growth' in respect of a period means the percentage change in revenue derived from Established Practices in that period as compared to revenue from the same dental practices in the corresponding period in the immediately prior year.
