Senators have passed a bill that will allow low- and middle-income families to access government money to help care for their kids' dental care.
A dentist at the Riley Hospital for Children, checks the teeth of Justin Perez, 11, during an office visit in Indianapolis, Friday, Jan. 22, 2016. Senators have adopted the Liberals' dental-benefits bill, which means qualifying low- and middle-income families should be able to apply for government cheques to help care for their kids' teeth as early at Dec. 1.
The dental benefit was a compromise between the Liberals and NDP, as part of the supply-and-confidence agreement that will see the New Democrats support the minority government until 2025.
