Can I ask for a crown assessment if I have not seen a dentist in years?+
Yes. Mention the gap in your request. It gives the clinic useful context about what your first visit may need to cover.
Will my other teeth get looked at, or just this one?+
Ask when requesting your appointment, so you know what your first visit will include. If you would like a general check-up too, tell the clinic upfront.
Should my cleaning come before my crown?+
It depends on your gums, on the tooth and on how urgent the problem is. A dentist can advise on the order once they have examined you.
What if the exam finds more than I came in for?+
You can ask which findings are most pressing and what happens if each one waits. Decisions about treatment remain yours to make.
Why does the health of my gums matter so much for a crown?+
Gums form part of the foundation that a dentist evaluates. They also surround the crown margin, an area that needs to stay clean over the long term.
How does a Rosser resident request a combined visit?+
Use the form or call (204) 338-3003, and list what you want looked at. The clinic can then discuss with you what can be arranged at McPhillips Street.
