Tooth Loss in Laval
Knocked-out tooth, crown fallen off, loose implant?
Every minute counts: a tooth can be successfully reimplanted within the first 30 to 60 minutes. Call us immediately.
What kind of tooth loss are you dealing with?
Losing a tooth can happen suddenly or gradually. Every situation has its own level of urgency and its own treatment plan. Identify your case to know how to act.
Knocked-out tooth after a trauma
Fall, accident, blow to the face — the tooth has been pulled fully out of its socket. This is the most urgent situation: keep the tooth in milk and call immediately. Every minute reduces the chance of reimplantation.
Absolute emergency — 60 minTooth lost due to deep decay
The decay has destroyed the tooth down to the pulp or the root. The tooth can no longer be saved and extraction is unavoidable. The sooner you come in, the simpler and less expensive the replacement will be.
Urgent — plan quicklyTooth loss due to periodontitis
Gum disease has gradually destroyed the bone around the tooth, which has loosened and fallen out. Other teeth may be at risk. A full periodontal assessment is needed to stop the progression.
UrgentTooth fractured below the gum line
The fracture extends beneath the gum line, making the tooth unrepairable. An extraction followed by a replacement plan (implant or bridge) must be scheduled quickly to prevent infection of the socket.
Urgent — 24 hTooth missing for some time
You lost a tooth weeks, months or years ago and never had it replaced. Bone resorption and drifting of the neighboring teeth are already underway. It's never too late, but act now.
See us as soon as possibleLoss of several teeth (partial edentulism)
You are missing several teeth, making chewing difficult and affecting your diet and your confidence. Multiple implants, an implant-supported bridge or a partial denture — several solutions exist depending on your bone situation.
Assessment recommendedWhy you shouldn't wait to come in
After a tooth loss, every hour of inaction reduces your chances of saving the tooth and increases the complexity and cost of the treatment needed.
Reimplantation no longer possible
After 60 minutes, the cells of the periodontal ligament die and reimplantation almost always fails. The window of action is short and cannot be recovered.
Irreversible bone resorption
Without a tooth, the jawbone resorbs quickly. Within a few months, the bone volume available for an implant decreases, making surgery more complex and expensive.
Neighboring teeth drift
The space left by a lost tooth encourages the neighboring and opposing teeth to shift. This creates bite problems, tooth wear and long-term malocclusion.
Treatment cost multiplied
A successful same-day reimplantation costs a fraction of an implant with a bone graft several months later. Acting fast is also a smart financial choice.

Our clinic offers every solution to replace a lost tooth, from emergency reimplantation to permanent reconstructions — no waiting list.
Emergency dental reimplantation
Tooth knocked out after a blow? If you act within 30 to 60 minutes, reimplantation can succeed. Keep the tooth in milk and call us immediately.

Permanent dental implant
The most natural and long-lasting solution to replace a lost tooth. The implant integrates with the bone and offers stability, aesthetics and function close to that of a natural tooth.
Book an appointment
Fixed dental bridge
The bridge rests on the neighboring teeth to replace the missing one. A fixed, aesthetic and functional solution, fitted in a few visits without surgery.
Book an appointment
Partial or full removable denture
Partial for one or several missing teeth, or full for a whole arch. An affordable, quick-to-fit, comfortable and aesthetic solution.
Book an appointment
Post-avulsion socket stabilization
After an extraction or a traumatic loss, we protect the socket with a bone graft or a membrane to preserve the bone volume for a future implant.
Book an appointment
Immediate temporary crown
While waiting for the permanent solution, we fit a temporary crown the same day to restore aesthetics and function and to protect the tooth or the implant site.

Everything you need to know about tooth loss
Clear answers to the most common questions about tooth loss and related emergencies in Laval.
Act immediately. Pick up the tooth by the crown (never by the root). Rinse it gently under cold water without scrubbing or drying it. Store it in whole milk, saliva or in your mouth between your cheek and your gum. Call us at 450-933-7427 without delay. Successful reimplantation is possible within the first 30 to 60 minutes after the accident.
It is only possible within the 30 to 60 minutes following the avulsion, and only if the tooth has been properly stored (in milk, saliva or a moist environment). After that window, or if the root has been damaged (scrubbed, dried, broken), reimplantation fails. Baby teeth are not reimplanted, but permanent teeth can often be saved if you act quickly.
The ideal solution depends on your bone situation, your overall health and your preferences. The dental implant is the most natural and long-lasting solution. A bridge is a good alternative if an implant isn't an option. A removable denture is more affordable. We walk you through all the options at your consultation so you can make an informed choice.
In many cases, yes. Accidental dental trauma is often covered by dental insurance or accident insurance. Emergency care, stabilization and temporary restorations are generally reimbursable. Bring your insurance card to your visit and we file the paperwork directly with your insurer.
The cost of an implant depends on the complexity of the case (need for a bone graft, location, type of crown). We give you a detailed, transparent quote at your consultation. Financing options are available to spread out the payments. Remember: acting quickly after a tooth loss often reduces the overall cost of the treatment.
Without a replacement, the jawbone gradually resorbs, the neighboring teeth drift into the open space, the bite deteriorates and jaw joint (TMJ) problems can appear. Aesthetics and chewing are affected. The longer you wait, the more complex and expensive the future treatment becomes. Acting early is always the best decision.
Yes — see us within 24 to 48 hours. The exposed abutment tooth is vulnerable to fracture and infection. Don't try to glue it back on with regular glue. If possible, temporarily place the crown back without forcing it to protect the tooth. Call us to get a priority slot as soon as possible.
Absolutely. You don't have to be an existing patient to be seen on an emergency basis. We welcome all new patients who need fast care for a tooth loss, no strings attached and no prior file required.
Every second counts.
Your tooth can still be saved
Reimplantation of a knocked-out tooth is only possible within the first 30 to 60 minutes. Don't wait — call us immediately or book online.
