A bridge takes several stages, and that can mean asking a relative, friend or neighbour for more than one lift. Knowing what each stage involves makes those requests far easier to line up.
Let's find a time
Living in St. Andrews puts you outside the City of Winnipeg, and bridge treatment with us happens at our clinic on McPhillips Street in Winnipeg. If you do not drive yourself, each appointment also becomes a date on another person’s calendar.
Nobody can count your visits until the supporting teeth or implants, the length of the space and your bite have been assessed. What you can do from the start is warn your driver that this is staged care, then share more dates as the plan takes form.
Explore dental bridges
Your driver can expect repeat trips rather than being surprised by them.
A rough idea of each appointment’s length helps whoever is waiting on you.
If a lift falls through, phoning the clinic is the simple next move.
The structure holding the replacement tooth shapes what happens at each visit. Here are the two main approaches, along with a less common one-sided variation.
Suitable teeth on either side of the space receive crowns, and those crowns carry the artificial tooth between them.
Where implants are part of the plan, they hold the restoration, and natural teeth need no preparation to act as anchors.
Whichever design you are offered, request a list of the coming stages before you head home, because your driver will want it too.
The clinic can tell you which of these stages may share one appointment in your situation, and how long to tell someone to plan on.
Request your visitTeeth, gums, bite, alignment and existing restorations are looked at so that a recommendation can be made.
Anchor teeth get prepared where that is needed, or healed implants are evaluated for their connection.
A scan or impression, bite records and shade notes guide fabrication, and a temporary might go in afterward.
Your dentist reviews contacts, bite, margins, appearance and access for cleaning, then secures the bridge.
Being driven is easier on everyone when both of you know the shape of the day. Share what you have been told, including anything still unknown.
Whether a driver may wait inside, or how long an appointment could run, are fair things to raise with the clinic when you call.

Some patients put off treatment because they dislike asking for help. If the arrangements are weighing on you, or you are uneasy about the dental work itself, mention it so we can talk about it.
Tell us what you are nervous about, so it can be part of the discussion.
Find out how you might feel leaving, in case your driver has errands in mind.
A single page keeps you from relying on memory while someone is waiting.
Once the rides are done
Fitting day does not end the relationship between you and this restoration. Daily cleaning falls to you, and periodic examinations remain worth arranging transportation for.
Regular floss cannot slide between joined units. We will demonstrate suitable tools, which could include a floss threader, super floss, interdental brush or water flosser.
Natural anchors can decay at their margins, so examinations matter. Asking about the next one early gives your driver plenty of warning.
Movement, a chipped surface, a rough edge or an altered bite are all reasons to dial (204) 338-3003.
Also call about food that keeps packing around the bridge, or about bleeding, swelling or a bad taste that will not go away.

Helpful details about dental bridges in St. Andrews.
Ask our teamNot reliably, since that count follows from your supports, span and any treatment needed first. You should be able to ask about likely stages once the assessment is done.
Explain that it is mainly an examination and discussion of options. Ask the clinic roughly how long to allow, so the person taking you can plan their day.
Phone the clinic as soon as you know and explain. If a temporary is in place or something is bothering you, say so, since that information could affect what you are advised to do.
No. A fixed bridge stays cemented or attached and is not something a patient removes, unlike a removable partial denture.
A temporary that has come loose or broken is worth a phone call first. The clinic can then tell you what to do and whether you need to come in.
Request a time with the form or at (204) 338-3003 and mention the days a lift is likeliest. Treatment takes place in Winnipeg at McPhillips Street, and the clinic will respond to arrange it.
