Root canal treatment in Vaudreuil-Dorion
If a toothache in Vaudreuil-Dorion is keeping you up at night, our Harwood Boulevard clinic can see you the same day, Monday to Friday (on weekends, at our Valleyfield clinic), and start the root canal treatment that removes the source of the pain. We serve Vaudreuil, Dorion, Pincourt, L’Île-Perrot, Saint-Lazare, Hudson and the rest of Vaudreuil-Soulanges.
A root canal is the treatment that saves a tooth with an infected nerve instead of extracting it. Done in time, it keeps your natural tooth, your bite and the bone around the root, and avoids the cost of an implant or a bridge later.

Root canal treatment in Vaudreuil-Dorion: our approach
Our Vaudreuil-Dorion dentists use modern endodontic instruments and digital X-rays, and they explain each step on screen before starting. The tooth is fully numbed, and the appointment is planned so the treatment can be completed in one or two visits at the clinic, with a crown afterwards if needed.
How the appointment goes
Your visit starts with an exam and an X-ray to confirm that the pulp is the cause of the pain. After local anesthesia and placement of a rubber dam, the dentist opens the tooth, removes the infected pulp, cleans and shapes the canals, then seals them. A temporary or permanent filling closes the tooth until the crown is placed.
| Duration | 60 to 90 minutes (1 or 2 visits) |
| Afterwards | Sensitivity for 2 to 5 days, managed with common pain relievers |
| Success rate | High; the tooth can last a lifetime if it is restored and maintained |

Will I need a crown after my root canal in Vaudreuil-Dorion?
