Seniors aged 72 to 76 added to federal government’s new dental program.

The federal government is expanding its dental care program to provide coverage for seniors aged 72-76, as announced by Health Minister Mark Holland. The program began in December with seniors 77 and older, and over 400,000 previously uninsured Canadians have gained access to dental care since then. However, dentists, hygienists, and other dental providers are still awaiting crucial details about how the program will operate and how much the government will pay for services.
