Overview

How We Help With Your Canada Life Coverage


Annual maximums, frequency limits, waiting periods, co-payments, predeterminations, and treatment categories all affect what you owe. Our front desk team explains your coverage before you sit in the chair.

Not sure what your plan includes? Call (416) 651-1745 and we’ll figure it out.

Before your appointment, we can:

  • Look up your Canada Life benefits using your insurance information
  • Provide a treatment estimate with your expected share of costs
  • Submit predeterminations for larger treatments like crowns, bridges, implants, or dentures
  • Coordinate benefits if you have coverage under two plans

Benefits Check

We look up your Canada Life coverage before your appointment so you know your expected costs before treatment starts.

Direct Billing

Where your plan allows, we submit claims directly to Canada Life. You pay your estimated portion at the visit.

Predetermination

For crowns, bridges, implants, or orthodontics, we submit a predetermination so Canada Life confirms coverage before treatment begins.

What to Know

What Affects Your Coverage


Annual Maximum

Most plans cap what they’ll pay per benefit year. Once you hit that limit, remaining costs are yours until the plan renews.

Deductibles & Co-payments

Some plans require a deductible or co-payment before benefits kick in. Your plan booklet or HR department can confirm your specific amounts.

Cleaning & Recall Frequency

Most plans limit how often cleanings are covered — typically every 6 or 9 months. Scaling units may also be capped per year.

Major Treatment Percentages

Crowns, bridges, dentures, and implants are often covered at a lower percentage than basic care. We confirm your split before any major treatment starts.

Waiting Periods

Some plans include waiting periods before certain treatment categories become active, especially for newer plan members.

Predetermination Requirements

For larger treatment plans, Canada Life may require a predetermination before confirming coverage. We can submit this for you.
