Today I went to the dentist for the second time in a month because they had to pull 2 teeth out.

But when I got home they call me saying the dental card my ow caseworker gave me wasn't good.

I try calling my caseworker she just wont answer what can I do.

Hi There,

Thanks for sharing your question and situation with us. We can appreciate that it's stressful situation to be in.

We suggest you try contacting the nearest Ontario Works office and let them know that your card was rejected and ask for next steps. Also let them know your worker hasn't returned your calls so they're aware you tried to speak to your worker first.

For future dental care you may wish to look at some other free and low cost programs in your area.

Some of our users may also be able to share their experience with you.

I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
