This is the best summary I could come up with:
"I haven't seen patients in this condition since I did overseas mission dentistry work in Haiti and Peru."
Lee said his clinic has been reimbursed for the procedures within 48 hours by Sunlife, the insurance company that Ottawa contracted to administer the plan.
For most of the procedures he's done, Lee said, the federal government is reimbursing him at about 80 to 90 per cent of what the Ontario Dental Association recommends.
But provincial dental associations across Canada have raised concerns about the CDCP, arguing the national program requires dentists to agree to unnecessary terms and conditions.
The auditing process also allows Sunlife to request individual patient records, which isn't something other insurance programs require and could lead to privacy issues, Nicolucci said.
and an expert in dental public health, said he's optimistic about the program's prospects for success, especially as dentists and their patients get used to the new system in the weeks and months ahead.
