An olive pit, a popcorn kernel, a stumble on the ice. However your tooth broke, keep any pieces you can find and phone our McPhillips Street clinic.
Let's find a time
Your tongue finds the rough edge before you see it in the mirror. It may hurt badly, or it may not hurt at all, and both can leave you wondering how fast you have to act. For Garden City residents dealing with a damaged tooth, a phone call to Winnipeg North Dental is a sensible place to begin.
Pain alone does not tell you how serious a fracture is. Only an examination, sometimes with an X-ray, can show how far the crack extends and what the tooth requires. Our dentist can then attend to any sharp edge or immediate risk and go over the treatment that might repair it.
Explore emergency dentistry
Any fragment you can find is worth bringing, so the dentist can see what broke away.
Chewing elsewhere until your appointment avoids putting more stress on the damaged tooth.
Options depend on the size and location of the break, which the examination will help reveal.
Damage to a tooth covers a wide range. Here is how the dentist tends to think about it, though the decision always comes down to your own examination.
A missing corner or jagged edge is obvious, but it does not reveal what lies below the surface.
Some cracks hide inside the tooth, and pain on biting may be the only clue that one is present.
A broken tooth combined with a major blow can be more than a dental problem. Use 911 or emergency medical care for serious facial injury, uncontrolled bleeding, loss of consciousness, severe facial swelling, or difficulty breathing or swallowing.
Your appointment is about understanding the break first and fixing it second. Here is the sequence you can generally expect.
Request your visitTell us what you bit or hit, when it occurred and whether you have noticed pain, sensitivity or looseness since then.
The tooth and the surrounding area are examined closely, with X-rays where the dentist finds them appropriate.
Your dentist may tend to a sharp edge, address discomfort and stabilize the tooth to lower the risk of further damage.
The options that make sense for your tooth are laid out, along with whether the repair can happen now or belongs at another appointment.
Begin with a gentle rinse, and collect whatever pieces you can. Keep chewing to the other side, and should swelling develop, hold a cool compress against the outside of your face.
None of this replaces being examined; it only helps look after the area while you arrange care.
Rooms for talking and for treatment at our clinic.
Feeling self-conscious about a visible break is completely understandable. You can tell the dentist how the tooth’s appearance is affecting you, along with any pain, so both are part of the conversation.
Say what matters most to you, whether that is eating comfortably again or how your smile looks.
An unexpected repair can feel daunting, so ask for an estimate once the options are clear.
You can ask how the possible repairs differ and what each would involve before deciding anything.
Repairing it properly
Stabilizing a broken tooth is rarely the end of the story, since a long-term restoration may still be needed. What the tooth needs depends on how much of it is left and whether the inner part has been affected.
Minor chips and damaged areas may be candidates for direct repair, such as a filling, if the dentist finds this suitable.
Significant loss of tooth structure could lead to a discussion about a crown or another restoration.
If saving the tooth is not predictable, extraction and ways to replace it may be explained to you.
Is a temporary repair causing problems? Let us know by phone instead of waiting.

Helpful details about emergency dentistry in Garden City.
Ask our teamLack of pain does not rule out a significant fracture, and a damaged tooth can remain vulnerable. Phone the clinic, describe the break and we can help you judge how soon to come in.
Yes, save anything you can find and bring it to your appointment. Please do not attempt to attach it yourself using glue or any other household product.
Direct repair can suit cavities, chips and smaller damaged areas. Larger fractures may need a different approach, so the choice follows your examination.
Not always. Many factors affect what is possible, including where the crack is and how deep it runs. The dentist can explain your options honestly once the tooth has been assessed.
That depends on the treatment you need, so an exact figure has to wait for a diagnosis. Ask for an estimate, and bring your plan details so coverage questions can be looked into.
Please do. Calling (204) 338-3003 is the quickest way to describe the damage and find out what appointment might be appropriate at our McPhillips Street clinic.
