Our services
Dental Emergencies
At Lac Saint-François Dental Clinic, we take emergencies and dental pain very seriously. Indeed, we are committed to seeing you the same day. Being able to relieve you and treat you as quickly as possible is our mission.
Complete Exam
A dental exam is an essential service in maintaining your oral health. As our clinic is dedicated to proactive prevention, the dentist will be able to detect abnormalities that you cannot feel or see. The annual dental examination is essential in order to maintain beautiful and healthy teeth as long as possible.

Invisalign
Invisalign is a series of transparent, computer-made aligners made from an impression of your bite. This makes straightening the teeth more predictable and comfortable.
Invisalign aligners are easy to remove so you can brush your teeth and eat normally. The duration of treatment varies between six months to two years, depending on the complexity of the case.
Follow-up visits will be scheduled every six to eight weeks to monitor the progress of treatment. At the end of the treatment, a retention wire is attached to the teeth or to a transparent retention tray to help maintain the teeth in their final position.
Dental implantology
Dental implants replace one or more missing teeth, by implanting one or more artificial roots.
Implants serve as a support for crowns, bridges and dentures. They restore the masticatory function and oral aesthetics as appropriate.

Crowns and bridges
The dental crown restores all the beauty of a tooth, in addition to restoring its natural radiance. It protects it against fractures by ensuring excellent longevity. It will be prescribed for you when your tooth has been weakened by decay or previous treatments.
The bridge also called “fixed bridge” or “fixed dental prosthesis” is a dental restoration that replaces one or more missing teeth. It is usually made up of an artificial tooth fixed between two crowns and extends from end to end of a toothless area. It is permanently fixed.
Tooth extraction
The professionals at Lac Saint-François Dental Clinic are experienced in giving you confidence during dental extractions, in a calm and warm atmosphere. Whether for a simple extraction or concerning wisdom teeth, a consultation will allow you to know the procedures and thus reassure you. You will be in complete confidence with our team.
Hygiene and prevention
Regular visits with your hygienist help remove plaque and tartar from the teeth to prevent cavities, gingivitis and gum disease. These preventive visits help to detect any oral abnormalities. In some cases, a visit every three months may be useful in order to monitor the progress of certain dental situations (gum disease, cavities to watch out for).
In addition, your hygienist will be able to advise you, according to your needs, on the right oral approaches.

Periodontics, gingival grafts
The gums protect the roots of the tooth. In some patients, part of the gum tissue gradually shrinks, exposing the root. This problem is called gum recession or loosening of the teeth.
The purpose of a root covering transplant is to cover a loose root. A graft is a thin layer of gum tissue usually taken from the palate. Gum grafting stops the progression of gum loosening in addition to improving aesthetics and reducing the sensitivity of the roots.
In some cases, it is possible to use a technique where the tissue comes from a donor bank. This makes it possible to avoid taking a graft from the palate (allogeneic graft).
In some patients, receding gums are caused by a bad brushing technique that is too strong. Sometimes, a simple review of the brushing technique by a dentist or hygienist is enough to stop the progression of the problem.
The success rate of this intervention varies depending on the form and extent of the recession. Unfortunately, this kind of procedure is less functional for smokers. The amount of root cover with the grafts will vary depending on local factors.
Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment is a procedure that aims to restore a damaged or infected tooth to keep it, rather than extracting it.
Denturist service
The Lac Saint-François Dental Clinic offers a complete denturist service. The design, manufacture, repair and evaluation of complete, partial and dentures on implants is available and performed by the denturist.
Denturist services are 100% personalized and the patient is actively involved in the choice of teeth and aesthetics.
Always manufactured with quality materials and components, the denturist is committed to providing you with a high level of service. Consultations and evaluations are completely free.
For each denture made, a tree will be planted in the area. This concrete gesture aims to contribute to the reforestation and the rehabilitation of precarious animal and plant populations. The trees are completely native, and planted according to their ideal geographic distribution. It is a small gesture that lessens the impact of the dental field on the environment. It’s about showing that we care about our unique region and surrounding communities.
