Most pages about bonding stop at the final polish. If you’d like to know what comes next, including how the tooth may feel and what deserves a phone call, this one is for you.
Let's find a time
Your tongue will probably find the new surface before your eyes do. Tongues are remarkably sensitive to change, so even a slight alteration in contour can seem bigger than it looks. For many people, a change like this stops drawing attention as they get used to it.
Other sensations do deserve a response, though. A tooth that hits first when you close, or an edge that scrapes, may simply need adjusting. Knowing the difference saves needless worry, and the clinic on McPhillips Street in Winnipeg is where any of it would be reviewed.

Lips and tongue often notice a small change first, and that awareness isn’t in itself a sign of a problem.
If your bite feels off after the visit, an adjustment may be all that’s needed, so don’t just put up with it.
Brushing and cleaning between teeth carry on normally, with extra thought given to what you bite into.
No page can diagnose your tooth, but these two groups are a practical way to think about what you’re noticing. If you’re in doubt, ring the clinic and ask.
These are often about getting used to a change, particularly when an edge or the width of a tooth has been altered.
None of these automatically means something’s gone wrong, but each one is a good reason to call rather than wait.
Please use the phone rather than the form if a tooth is painful or something has broken. Staff can then tell you how to proceed.
Much of what happens afterwards depends on the final minutes in the chair. Here’s the sequence, with special attention to the parts that shape how the tooth feels when you’re back home.
Request your visitAfter the tooth, gums and bite have been examined, resin shades are picked to relate to the enamel around the area you’re treating.
Conditioned, isolated enamel receives adhesive, and then composite is added in controlled increments and set under a curing light.
You’ll likely be asked to bite on marking paper. This shows where the new material touches, so any excess contact can be smoothed away.
With polishing complete, run your tongue across the tooth and close together gently. Bring up anything rough or high before you go.
Often no local anaesthetic is needed when resin goes onto intact enamel, but sometimes it’s appropriate. Ask about this in advance, since numbness can make it harder to judge your bite and may affect your plans for the rest of the day.
When you’re frozen, mention it as your bite is being checked. It may be harder for you to tell how your teeth are coming together.
Chairs beneath a large blind in the waiting room, then a white reception desk with an orchid.
It’s easy to feel you’re being a bother over a tiny rough spot. A slightly high contact or snagging edge is something clinicians expect to hear about, and it’s far better raised than quietly endured.
You know how your teeth normally come together, so if the closing feels wrong, that’s useful information.
Leave a rough edge alone rather than using a nail file or your fingernail on the resin.
A short account of what you feel and when it occurs gives the team a good starting point.
Settling into normal
Once the newness fades, a bonded tooth is mostly just another tooth, with a few caveats. A handful of lasting habits will help you get the most from the resin.
Very hard foods and non-food objects are the things most likely to take off a corner, especially with thin additions.
Coffee, tea and red wine can gradually mark composite, so a colour shift over time shouldn’t catch you off guard.
During regular checks, the dentist can look at the bonded area’s margins and surface along with the rest of your mouth.
Whatever you’re noticing, a phone call to the clinic can help you sort it out.

Ask our teamContact the clinic where it was placed, at Unit 5, 2358 McPhillips Street, Winnipeg, by calling (204) 338-3003. Describe what you’re feeling so the team can arrange the next step.
Your tongue and lips pick up tiny differences in shape, so slight additions can seem bigger than they are. If that feeling persists or the tooth is catching on something, ask to have it checked.
Ask the dentist before you leave, particularly if you’ve been frozen. Advice can depend on your treatment, and if you’re numb you may not be able to judge what you’re biting.
A tooth may react differently after work has been done on it, but ongoing or worsening discomfort shouldn’t be ignored. Phone the clinic so that it can be assessed.
Please don’t count on that. Excess contact can overload thin resin or make the tooth uncomfortable, and an adjustment may resolve it. Call to have it looked at.
The dentist can give you advice specific to your repair. Long term, hard objects are the chief concern for bonded edges, and dark drinks and tobacco can make staining more visible.
Regular examinations and surface care can help protect what’s been done. These pages cover the kinds of care that may follow a bonding visit.
