Canada has very limited dental coverage. I think that only a few provinces (Quebec is one of them) provide basic dental care to children of a certain age. It used to
be 16, but now it's down to 10 or 12.
If you try to immigrate to Canada, apply for permanent residency or citizenship, and then try to apply for your dental treatment, you're still not covered. This is
because we expect to deal with this issue in private insurance.
I suggest that you... Keep you where you are. As a veteran, you may have at least some money from the government or health insurance companies, and if you move to
Canada, you may have to give up.
You'd better find a college or university with dental programs. In Montreal, there is a university that does all kinds of treatments for volunteers. Students will be
supervised by the teacher for cleaning, stuffing, root canal and other checks, he is a qualified dentist. "Patients" only pay for the materials used, and may be asked
to fill out a questionnaire to assess their skills or "attitudes to the patient".
In California, you have:
University of southern California dental school
- UCSF dental school
-ucla dental school
- dugoni dental college
- loma Linda dental school
Make a phone call to see if the school in your area has dental programs free to offer treatment or reduce costs.
