A denture isn’t a one-visit job, so coming into Winnipeg for care means thinking ahead. Here’s what the stages involve and what to ask about scheduling, records and follow-up before you begin at our McPhillips Street clinic.
Let's find a time
West St. Paul is outside the City of Winnipeg, so residents who choose our clinic will be coming into the city for appointments. That’s manageable with some forethought, and it makes sense to find out what you’re signing up for before the first visit.
Because the fit, bite and appearance are worked out gradually, you should plan on several appointments, often with adjustments afterward while your mouth adapts. The exact number depends on your treatment. After your exam, ask how many more visits are likely, and which of them are hardest to move.

Examination, records, a try-in and delivery each have their own purpose, so you can see what lies ahead.
Visit counts, timing and estimates are all fair questions once your needs have been assessed.
Adjustments may be needed after delivery, so factor in some return visits rather than expecting to be finished.
Your exam determines the design, and that in turn may influence how your visits line up. Here are the two you’re most likely to hear about.
A complete denture takes over for a full upper or lower arch, receiving support from your underlying tissues and jaw shape.
Here the missing teeth are filled in, and the appliance leans on the natural teeth you keep, along with your gums, for support and hold.
Because each mouth differs, nobody can tell you the full schedule ahead of an assessment. That first exam is where a realistic picture starts.
Once you know the purpose of each appointment, it’s easier to fit them around the rest of your life. Ask how long each one is likely to take.
Request your visitThe opening appointment covers your gums and soft tissue, any natural teeth, how the jaws line up and what you wear now, followed by a talk about which type may suit you.
Expect an impression or scan of your mouth, plus a record of your bite. Together, these guide how the denture gets made.
You’ll test a trial version, so the dentist can judge your bite, how you speak, and how the teeth sit in your smile. Try not to rush this visit, since it comes before processing.
Handing over your denture includes checking for areas that press, how firmly it stays in and how it performs. You’ll want to ask what sort of follow-up to plan for.
When you’re coming in from outside the city, it’s especially helpful to arrive with what’s needed. If you’ve been seeing another dentist, ask us what’s useful to have from them.
When you call, you can ask about appointment length, possible costs, and whether anything should be sent in ahead of your visit.

Expect a new denture to seem strange for a while. If you’ll be heading home from Winnipeg right after an appointment, it’s worth asking what you might experience in the following days.
Begin with manageable foods, so your first meals with the denture aren’t a struggle once you’re back home.
Point out any trouble spot before you leave. A pressure area is much simpler to discuss while you’re in the chair.
Reading out loud at home helps your tongue learn its new surroundings, and changes in speech often pass.
Once it’s delivered
Living outside the city doesn’t change what a denture needs over time. It simply makes it more useful to plan ahead for reviews and to know when to call.
Find out what to do if something feels wrong between visits, and make a note of the clinic’s number in advance.
Keep a running list as you adapt. That way, your follow-up can cover everything that came up since you were last seen.
With or without natural teeth, your mouth still needs examining for signs of disease, and the denture still needs its fit and function reviewed.
Sore spots shouldn’t be altered at home while you wait. Phone the clinic and describe what’s happening.

Helpful details about dentures in West St. Paul.
Ask our teamPlan on several, though your treatment and the way your mouth adapts will set the total. Once you’ve been examined, you can ask for a rough count.
Ask about this at the planning stage. Dentures are built in stages for a reason, so what can be combined depends on your treatment and the work between appointments.
A call lets you lay out what’s wrong and find out your next step. Adjusting a tender area is a job for the clinic, so try not to grit your teeth through it or change the denture yourself.
Have your previous clinic’s details ready, and ask us how a transfer would work. Some information may also be gathered at your own examination.
Your review schedule depends on your own situation. Ask at your delivery appointment how soon the first follow-up should be, and what to plan for after that.
