Patient guide
Handling a dental emergency in Orléans
Dentist or hospital?
Hospital emergency departments can treat pain, infection and injuries, but they generally don’t repair teeth. Go to a hospital for swelling that affects breathing or swallowing, a high fever with facial swelling, a jaw injury or bleeding that won’t stop. For everything else, call a dentist first.
Time matters
A knocked-out adult tooth has the best chance of being saved within 30 to 60 minutes. Cracks and infections also get worse with time, so call as early in the day as you can, when clinics have the most room to fit you in.
Costs and coverage
Emergency visits can carry extra fees depending on the treatment needed. Ask for the cost of each step before treatment, and bring your insurance details so the clinic can check what is covered.
Canadian Dental Care Plan
The federal CDCP covers eligible residents who have no dental insurance and an adjusted family net income under $90,000. Clinics decide whether to take CDCP patients, so ask when you call. Details are at canada.ca.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Where can I find an emergency dentist in Orléans?
Trillium Dental Orleans on Mer-Bleue Road is our featured emergency dentist; it treats urgent cases as a priority and can see most emergency patients the same day. Orleans Dental Arts on Innes Road has the longest hours, including evenings and Saturdays, and Mer Bleue Dental Centre on Lanthier Drive is open until 6pm Monday to Thursday.
Is there a 24-hour emergency dentist in Orléans?
None of the three clinics on this list is open 24 hours. Outside office hours, Trillium Dental lets you leave a message on its main line and calls back as quickly as possible. For facial swelling with fever, trouble breathing or swallowing, or bleeding that won't stop, go to the Hôpital Montfort emergency department on Montréal Road, which is open 24/7, or call 911.
Which Orléans dentist is open on Saturdays for emergencies?
Of the three clinics here, Orleans Dental Arts is open on Saturdays from 9am to 5pm. Call before you go so the team can fit you in.
What should I do if my tooth gets knocked out?
Pick the tooth up by the crown, not the root. If it is dirty, rinse it briefly in milk or water without scrubbing. Try to place it back in the socket and bite gently on gauze; if you can't, keep it in milk or inside your cheek and see a dentist right away. A knocked-out adult tooth has the best chance of being saved within 30 to 60 minutes. Do not put a baby tooth back in.
Should I go to the dentist or the hospital?
Most dental emergencies, such as a broken tooth, lost filling or toothache, are best handled by a dentist, because hospital emergency departments usually manage pain and infection but do not repair the tooth. Go to a hospital or call 911 for swelling that affects breathing or swallowing, swelling with a high fever, a jaw injury, or bleeding that doesn't stop after 15 to 20 minutes of firm pressure.
How much does an emergency dental visit cost in Ottawa?
It depends on what is needed: an emergency exam and X-ray cost less than a root canal or extraction, and clinics may charge extra for urgent appointments. Ask for the cost of each step before treatment starts, and bring your insurance or CDCP details so the clinic can check your coverage.
