Services of our dental clinic in Vaudreuil

Emergency Appointment

For any emergency situation, such as an aching tooth or gum, a swelling in the mouth or on the face, or a broken tooth, you can count on the Lyne Pharand Dental Centre to quickly welcome you in, expertly perform the required emergency work and bring you relief.

Sealants for Preventing cavities

Around the age of six, when the first adult molar teeth emerge in children, we recommend applying sealants to their surfaces. This prevents the dental plaque from sticking in tooth grooves and cracks, which can easily generate dental cavities.

Around the age of 12, when the second adult molar teeth pierce through the gums, we also then recommend applying sealants to their surfaces, for the same reasons.

Protective Mouth Guard

The dentist can shape a custom-made protective mouth guard for people who practice certain sports, to prevent any impact from causing tooth breakage or loss.

Night guard

When someone grinds his/her teeth during sleep, wakes up with clenched jaws or a headache, or has teeth showing acute wear, the dentist can shape a custom-made night guard.

Crowns, Dental Bridges, Implant-Supported Crowns, Partial Dental Prostheses

A tooth in a state of advanced destruction or that has undergone a root canal treatment becomes more fragile. In such cases, we recommend placing a crown, in order to avoid a fracture that could lead to tooth loss.

The crown, usually made of porcelain and/or gold, covers the tooth entirely and makes it more resistant to chewing forces.

A missing tooth can be replaced by a dental bridge, an implant-supported crown or a partial dental prosthesis.

Endodontics (Root Canal Treatment)

When a tooth is severely damaged, has a large cavity or requires major restoration, the dentist then proceeds to a root canal treatment. This operation is performed under local anesthesia, and is intended to remove the infected or inflamed dental pulp.

Check-Up and Cleaning

As part of the dental check-up, we take radiographs of the entire mouth. We also visually examine the teeth, gums, mucous membranes and all anatomical structures of the mouth and face, in order to be in a position to identify any specific problem.

The teeth cleaning operation consists of using special instruments to gently and thoroughly remove any tartar deposits accumulated on tooth surfaces and underneath the gums.

Composite and Amalgam Fillings

After removing the cavities, we proceed to place fillings. These can be made out of composite (white fillings) or amalgam (grey fillings).

Teeth whitening

Dental bleaching consists of applying a gel within trays custom-made for your teeth. The treatment, which the patient carries out him(her)self at home, requires 14 one-hour applications spread out over one to two weeks.

Another teeth bleaching technique that can be used at the dental clinic is the chair-side technique. This technique consists of applying the gel directly onto the teeth, with no trays. The application lasts eight minutes. Three to four applications can be carried out per visit.

Surgery (Tooth Extraction)

Sometimes it is possible to avoid all the inconvenience of tooth extraction by performing a root canal treatment.

Nevertheless, the dentist can recommend extraction depending on the situation. For example, it is sometimes necessary to extract wisdom teeth: indeed, they can cause repetitive infections, lead to the formation of a cyst, or even damage adjacent teeth.

Periodontics

Periodontics includes all treatments of gum-associated diseases or other problems. For example, we can perform root planning and curettage (remove tartar, inflamed or granulation tissues), or, in more severe cases, do surgery.

Partial Dental Prostheses

Prostheses can replace missing teeth. They are retained by clasps that grip onto healthy adjacent teeth, and are removable (can be taken out for sleeping).
