Because in an emergency, you need to feel heard, reassured and cared for. At Centre Dentaire Cousineau, we take the time to understand your situation and clearly explain what we see, your treatment options and the related costs before starting any treatment.
Our priority is to provide care adapted to your situation, in a professional and caring environment.
Our team speaks French, English, Arabic (Moroccan, Algerian and Lebanese), Persian, Spanish, Vietnamese and Mandarin. Describing pain is hard enough. Doing it in your own language makes it easier, and helps the dentist better understand what’s going on.
Pain rarely shows up at a convenient time. We’re open until 8 p.m. on Tuesdays, until 7 p.m. on Thursdays and every other Saturday, so you can often come in without missing a day of work.
We see patients from Brossard, of course, but also from Longueuil, Saint-Lambert and La Prairie. Parking is free and the clinic is wheelchair accessible.
The dentist examines your mouth to find the cause of your pain. If needed, X-rays are taken to confirm the diagnosis and determine the right treatment. The priority is to relieve your pain and stabilize your condition.
Depending on the type of emergency, treatment may be done during this first visit or require a second appointment. For example, a dental abscess may require drainage or a root canal treatment, depending on the situation. If a tooth needs to be extracted or is already lost, replacement options such as a dental implant can be considered later.
In every case, the dentist will explain your treatment options, the related costs and the next steps so you can make an informed decision.
These measures can relieve pain temporarily, but they don’t replace a dental exam.
Contact our clinic quickly if the pain gets worse, if you have swelling in your face or cheek, or if you have a fever.
If you have trouble breathing or swallowing along with swelling, call 911 immediately.
These symptoms may indicate a medical emergency.
In every case, keep whatever came loose and call us at (450) 676-1931 as soon as possible: the sooner we act, the better the chances of saving the tooth. Here’s what to do in the meantime, depending on your situation.
Keep the broken piece if you can, and store it in milk or in a damp cloth.
Gently rinse your mouth and call us quickly: the sooner we act, the better the chances of repairing the tooth.
If the tooth broke after a blow to the head or face, see a health professional quickly.
If there’s any loss of consciousness, confusion, vomiting or any other sign of a possible concussion, go to the emergency room.
If symptoms are severe, call 911.
Once your condition is stable and any medical emergency has been taken care of, contact our clinic to book an appointment to assess and treat your broken tooth.
If it’s a permanent tooth, hold it by the crown (the white part), never by the root.
If it’s dirty, rinse it briefly with water, without scrubbing it.
Keep it in milk and call us right away: every minute counts if we’re going to put it back, ideally within the hour.
If it’s a baby tooth, don’t try to put it back, but call us anyway.
Keep all the pieces and don’t use household glue: it can damage the tooth or the denture and make the repair harder.
Avoid chewing on that side until your visit.
Contact our clinic to book an appointment to assess the situation.
Most emergencies start as a small problem nobody noticed. A regular checkup lets us treat it before it starts to hurt.

The cost of an emergency visit depends on your situation and the care you need. Fees are based on the ACDQ fee guide in effect for the current year. The visit includes an exam by the dentist and, if needed, any X-rays the dentist considers necessary for your condition. The cost of any recommended treatment will be explained to you before care begins.
We welcome patients with private dental insurance as well as those covered by certain government programs, including the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP), subject to the applicable eligibility criteria. For private insurance, if we can’t get real-time confirmation of coverage from your insurer, you remain responsible for paying the fees. We recommend checking your coverage with your insurer before your appointment. We can prepare a treatment plan to help you understand the recommended care and estimated costs before we begin.
Yes, we also see children for a broken tooth, pain or a blow to the face.
