Federal investment in dental care: the story so far

Following the announcement early last spring of the Federal Government’s commitment to invest $5.3 billion over five years to improve access to oral health care for Canadians, the last twelve months has proved to be something of a landmark year for the dental profession.

In this video discussion, CDA president, Dr. Lynn Tomkins, reviews some of the key events in this story so far and looks forward to what dentists can expect in the months ahead, including the upcoming CDA Policy Paper scheduled to be published in late February 2023.

“We will have a very strong policy position that the government can use when it is designing a new plan going forward.”
