An old knock to a front tooth
Cosmetic & Orthodontics for Whyte Ridge Residents
A front tooth hit years ago can still show it through a chip, an old repair or a change in colour. Our McPhillips Street clinic can examine what remains and what could be done.

Long after the injury
Past damage can still shape your options.
A previously injured tooth is not just a cosmetic question. A darker shade may relate to trauma or to changes inside the tooth, and a rough edge can turn out to be a fracture or a failing filling. Those possibilities should be ruled in or out, because the health of that tooth decides which treatments can sensibly follow.
Whyte Ridge is an area in Winnipeg, and people there living with the traces of an old injury can have them assessed at Winnipeg North Dental on McPhillips Street. Whatever you recall about what happened and what was done afterward will be useful, even when the details are hazy or the repair came long ago.

Colour with a cause
One tooth darkening after trauma differs from general staining, and it needs to be diagnosed by itself.
Old repairs
Fillings or bonding on an injured tooth can fail, stain or stop matching as the rest of your smile changes.
Strength matters
A tooth weakened by damage or treatment may need a stronger restoration than a thin cosmetic layer can offer.

Your questions, answered.
Helpful details about cosmetic & orthodontics in Whyte Ridge.
Ask our teamWhy would a tooth change colour long after being hit?
Trauma can lead to changes inside the tooth that show up as darkening. Decay or a large restoration can look similar, so an examination is how the cause gets identified.
Will whitening fix a tooth darkened by an injury?
Whitening all your teeth may not solve a difference confined to one. Depending on the diagnosis, that tooth could need a restoration, internal whitening or some other treatment.
Is a chip from long ago worth having looked at?
Yes, if it bothers you or feels rough. A limited chip may suit smoothing or bonding, whereas a crack calls for a different discussion.
My injured tooth had a root canal. Could it take a veneer?
Perhaps not. A heavily weakened or root-canal-treated tooth may need another plan, and how much sound tooth remains will influence which restoration could protect it.
Can a once-injured tooth be moved with aligners?
Mention the history, since root support and tooth position are part of any orthodontic assessment. Appropriate X-rays may help the dentist judge what is suitable for that tooth.
My bonding keeps breaking on the same tooth. Why?
Your bite, habits, the size of the repair and the tooth underneath can all play a part. The reason for each chip should be assessed before more resin goes on.
What should someone in Whyte Ridge do about a fresh injury?
Please phone (204) 338-3003 rather than filling in the form. For an older concern, either route works, and your visit would be at our McPhillips Street clinic in Winnipeg.
