Understanding Your Student Dental Plan
Most student health and dental plans in BC are run through your students’ union and administered by Studentcare. Your coverage has two parts, and knowing how they work helps you get the most from your plan.
Not sure which plan you have? Look for your students’ union name on your plan card or log in at studentcare.ca.
1. Your insured coverage
This is the portion your plan pays for eligible dental services, such as exams, cleanings and fillings. It applies at any licensed dentist.
2. Network savings
When you visit a Studentcare Dental Network member like Canada Way Dental, you receive extra savings on top of your insured coverage, which lowers the amount left for you to pay.
Dental Services for Students
Common Dental Concerns for College and University Students
Student life brings its own dental challenges. Here’s how we help students in Burnaby stay on top of their oral health.
Wisdom Teeth
Many students start having wisdom tooth pain or crowding in their late teens and early twenties. We can check your wisdom teeth with an exam and X-rays and discuss whether removal is needed.
Cavities from Coffee and Energy Drinks
Late-night study sessions often mean more coffee, sugary drinks and snacking. Regular checkups help us catch small cavities early, before they become painful or costly.
Missed Checkups
Moving for school, busy schedules and new coverage can mean years between dental visits. If it has been a while, we’ll start with a full exam and cleaning with no judgement.
Dental Emergencies
A cracked tooth or sudden toothache can’t wait until after exams. Call us and we’ll see you as quickly as possible.
A Brighter Smile for Grad Photos and Interviews
Professional teeth whitening is a popular choice before graduation, job interviews and big events.
Straightening Your Teeth
Clear aligners like Invisalign are discreet and fit into busy student life. Ask us whether you’re a candidate.
Use Your Student Dental Benefits Before They Reset
Student plans run on a policy year and come with an annual maximum. Coverage you don’t use doesn’t carry over, so booking your checkup and cleaning each year is the easiest way to get full value from the fees you’ve already paid.
Check your policy year dates and annual maximum on your plan, or call us and we’ll help you plan treatment around your coverage.
