It’s easy to assume dental visits end once you have a denture. If you are in Parkview Pointe and wear a full or partial one, here is what a check-up can still look at for you.
Let's find a time
An exam covers more than teeth. Your gums and the other soft tissues in your mouth remain part of the picture, along with how your appliance sits. If you wear a partial, the teeth that hold it in place need looking after as carefully as ever.
What your appointment includes will depend on what you have left to care for, so a cleaning may or may not be part of it. Care for Parkview Pointe residents takes place at our clinic on McPhillips Street in Winnipeg, and you can ask which parts apply to you.
Explore check-ups & cleanings
Your gums, cheeks, and tongue are part of what your dentist can examine.
Rubbing, slipping, and trouble chewing are all fair topics for your appointment.
Natural teeth beside a partial can gather plaque in tricky places, so ask about cleaning them.
People with some natural teeth and people with none will have different needs at the same kind of appointment. Here is how each situation may differ.
Those teeth are working hard, so they get the usual check-up and cleaning care, with added attention to where a partial touches them.
A check-up can still be useful, centring on the tissues in your mouth and on how comfortable your denture is in daily life.
Not every part of a typical check-up applies to every mouth. Ask the clinic what your own appointment would involve, and whether a cleaning makes sense in your situation.
Your visit will reflect your own mouth and history. The outline below is simply a guide to how an appointment may go if you wear a removable appliance.
Request your visitBegin with your health history and how your denture or partial has been behaving. Mention food you’ve stopped eating because of it, and any recent changes.
You will likely be asked to take it out so the tissues underneath can be seen. Your dentist examines your mouth, then shares what they find.
If you have natural teeth, your hygienist talks through and carries out the cleaning those teeth need. More time may sometimes be recommended.
Before you go, ask about caring for your appliance and tissues, any recommended follow-up, and how soon you should come in again.
Coming in with your denture or partial lets your dentist hear how it has been working for you and see it first-hand. If an older one sits in a drawer, you might bring that too in case it’s useful to mention.
A broken appliance or a sore that’s lingering isn’t something to save for a routine visit. Call the clinic to explain what has happened.
A chair and overhead arm, with a sink on the far wall.
Some people feel uneasy about being seen without their teeth, even in a dental room. It is worth saying if you feel this way, so you can discuss when it comes out and when it goes back in.
Find out when your appliance needs to come out, so nothing about that moment takes you by surprise.
Show where it hurts, as sore patches can be tender to touch during an exam.
If you would like some time after putting it back in, simply say so before you get up.
Living with your appliance
A denture or partial needs its own routine, and so do the gums beneath it. Use your appointment to check that what you are doing at home matches the advice for your mouth.
Ask how your denture or partial should be cleaned and stored, including at night.
Your gums and any remaining teeth need attention of their own, so have your hygienist or dentist show you how.
How often you should come back depends on your mouth, so have your team give you a suggestion.
If your fit changes or a new sore appears after your visit, phone the clinic and let them know.

Helpful details about check-ups & cleanings in Parkview Pointe.
Ask our teamA check-up isn’t only about teeth, since your gums and soft tissues can be looked at as well. Your dentist can advise on how often it makes sense for you to come in.
A routine tooth cleaning is aimed at natural teeth, so your visit may look different. Ask the clinic what would be appropriate, and what care your denture and gums need.
Yes. A change in how it fits can have several causes, and your dentist can examine your appliance and your mouth to look into it. Mention when you first noticed it.
Generally, yes, so your dentist can hear how it’s been working and see it for themselves. You will likely be asked to remove it for parts of the exam.
Plaque can gather where an appliance meets a tooth, and those areas can be tricky to clean. Ask your hygienist to demonstrate how to reach them with your partial out.
A sore that lingers ought to be examined, so give the clinic a ring. The team can talk with you about arranging a time to have it looked at.
