Check-ups & Cleanings for West Kildonan Residents

Absence of pain doesn’t rule out a cavity, gum inflammation, or tartar. An examination looks for changes you may not be able to feel, and it is much easier to discuss a small concern than to wait until it demands attention.

Then you have heard good news and had your teeth cleaned. Your dentist can tell you what looks good and suggest when you should next be seen.

Most people describe a routine cleaning as pressure and scraping rather than pain, although exposed roots or heavy buildup can make things more sensitive. Tell your hygienist what you feel, since the technique can be adjusted.

Don’t hold off for a recall date if your gums start bleeding often, biting or temperature causes discomfort, a tooth or filling breaks, or a sore stays unhealed. Call the clinic if the concern feels urgent.

Six months is a common pattern but not a rule. Your health and how quickly things tend to change in your mouth both shape the interval you are given.

Fill out the form on this page or phone (204) 338-3003, and the clinic will follow up to confirm a time. You would be seen in Winnipeg, at Unit 5, 2358 McPhillips Street, R2V 4J6.
