Your tongue keeps finding a sharp corner, but nothing hurts. Polo Park residents can have a chipped tooth or broken filling looked at while catching up on routine care.
Let's find a time
It’s easy to shrug off a chipped tooth or a missing piece of filling when you feel nothing. A lack of pain doesn’t tell you much, though. Even a painless rough edge can worsen over time, and it gives plaque and food somewhere to collect.
So don’t feel you need to wait for your next routine appointment. Request a visit sooner, and mention the chip when you do. You can also ask whether your check-up and cleaning could be looked after around the same time, depending on what the dentist finds.

Broken tooth edges and damaged fillings can deserve attention even when they’re quiet.
There’s no need to hold on to a concern like this until your usual recall comes around.
If a break comes with pain or swelling, a call will serve you better than the web form.
Your chip is the reason you’re thinking about the dentist, but an exam reaches well beyond that single spot. Here is how a targeted look and routine care can relate.
Your dentist looks at the tooth or filling, then at what surrounds it, to decide what comes next.
If you are due, professional cleaning deals with deposits elsewhere in your mouth, not just near the chip.
The two may not happen in one sitting. Whether your cleaning takes place at the same appointment depends on what your tooth needs and on the time required.
Expect the conversation to start at the damaged spot and then widen. This is only a general outline, and the assessment may take things in another direction.
Request your visitShow where your tongue or cheek keeps catching. Update us on your health and medications, and describe any reaction to biting or temperature.
The dentist examines the broken area, reviews your other teeth, gums, and restorations, and decides whether diagnostic images would help.
You hear what is recommended, and you can ask about the choices. Sometimes a repair is suggested, and sometimes simply monitoring.
If it is suitable, your cleaning takes place now. Otherwise, you can arrange it for another visit, along with a suggested recall time.
Small details can be useful, especially whether the break happened suddenly or whether you only noticed it later. Try to take note of what you feel when you chew.
Mention the chip in your request, and let the clinic know if you’re also due for routine care. You may ask about timing and an estimated cost at that stage.

Many people hold off because they imagine the worst or assume a big repair is coming. Your assessment gives you information, and you can ask any questions about it before deciding anything.
If the broken edge is tender or easily irritated, say so before anyone begins working around it.
You may ask for a plain description of what happened to the tooth and what the options are.
A pause gesture agreed on at the start will let you take a moment if you need one.
After the chip is sorted
Once you know what is happening with the chip, you can pick up your routine care from there. It’s a good opportunity to review what else was noticed during your exam.
Ask about what is involved, when it should happen, and what an estimate would look like.
Find out what kind of change would be a reason to call before your next visit.
Your dentist or hygienist can suggest when you ought to return for routine care after this.
Don’t rely on the form if a broken tooth becomes painful or your face swells. Call (204) 338-3003.

Ask our teamYou could wait, but it isn’t the approach we’d suggest. A painless broken edge can get worse, and may trap plaque or food, so it’s worth asking to have it examined.
Get in touch and explain what came loose and when. A broken filling should be assessed, and calling is the right choice if you also have pain or sensitivity.
Not necessarily. Whether a repair is needed, and what kind, depends on the damage. Your dentist can explain the findings and options once the tooth has been examined.
You can ask for the chip to be your main concern. The dentist still needs to view it in context, so they might also look at the surrounding teeth and your bite.
Tell your hygienist about the chip before anything begins, so they know to take it into account. Your dentist can also advise if the cleaning should come after it’s been assessed.
Phone (204) 338-3003 or fill out the form on this page, mentioning the broken tooth. The dentist would examine it at Unit 5, 2358 McPhillips Street, Winnipeg, MB R2V 4J6.
Which of these is suitable, if any, depends on the tooth. Your dentist can explain after assessing the break.
