Dental Clinic for Centennial College Students
Most students pay for dental coverage every semester but don’t get the chance to use it. We’re a walk-in dental clinic for Centennial College students at Finch and Weston, 15 minutes west of the Downsview campus. We take We Speak Student and guard.me, and submit the claims here. Saturday appointments are open.
Dental Insurance Coverage for Students
Two different plans cover Centennial students. We accept both. We check your coverage before treatment starts and send the claim ourselves.
Domestic Students: Health and Dental Coverage
If you’re a full-time domestic student in an in-person program, CCSAI has already enrolled you in the We Speak Student plan. The fee sits on your fee statement, and your claims run through ClaimSecure.
Check your fee statement for the Health and Dental Insurance (HADI) line, $94 a semester. If the charge is there, you have coverage.
Enrolment happens automatically. Opting out is something you'd have to do yourself, at wespeakstudent.com, before the CCSAI deadline.
Coverage begins after a two-week blackout at the start of term, then applies back to the first day of the month your semester started.
Co-op terms, apprenticeships, and part-time programs don't carry the HADI fee. Confirm before you book.
Your ClaimSecure ID is the last seven digits of your student number followed by CCS.
Full-time students on this plan aren't eligible for the CDCP, even after opting out.
International Student Insurance: Guard.Me
Every registered international student at Centennial is on the guard.me policy. Considering dental work, guard.me is designed for emergencies rather than routine visits:
guard.me covers dental treatment after an accidental injury to your teeth, plus urgent relief of pain. Cleanings and routine checkups aren't included.
Your policy number arrives by email at your myCentennial address about two weeks into your first semester. Check the spam folder. Coverage is backdated to your first day.
Where your policy allows direct submission, we send the claim. Otherwise, we give you an itemized receipt including the procedure codes and dates guard.me asks for.
Am I Covered Under My Student Dental Plan?
Check to be sure. Domestic students look for the HADI charge on their fee statement. International students look for the guard.me email in their myCentennial inbox.
Where to find your card:
- Domestic: Sign in at wespeakstudent.com and select Centennial College, or open the ClaimSecure eProfile app.
- International: Search “guard.me” in your myCentennial email, or sign in at guard.me/centennial. Screenshot it. We need the number, not the card itself.
