Who’s Covered?

Key Points to Know About Your Dental Coverage
- If you visit a specialist for covered services, your reimbursement will be processed based on the equivalent General Practitioner fee.
- You’re covered for the insured portion of your Plan regardless of the dentist you choose. Our goal is to make dental care accessible and affordable for all U of T students.
- The Dental Plan offers $800 coverage for dental visits per policy year.
- The current policy year is from Sept. 1, 2023 – Aug. 31, 2024.
- The Plan covers 60% to 80% of your dental costs.
- The insured portion of your Dental Plan pays a percentage of the recommended fee for covered services, based on the Provincial Dental Fee Guide for General Practitioners (in the province where the service was performed).
