A dental problem that keeps building is telling you something. Call our McPhillips Street clinic in Winnipeg and explain how your symptoms have changed since they began.
Let's find a time
Plenty of people give a sore tooth a day or two to settle. If yours is heading the other way, with pain that lingers longer, a tender spot that has spread, or sleep that has started to suffer, this is a good moment to stop waiting and phone.
Whether your symptoms are changing is one of the things we most want to know when you call. Care for Meadow Land residents takes place at Winnipeg North Dental on McPhillips Street in Winnipeg, and a clear account of how things have progressed helps us judge how urgently you should be seen.

Jot down when symptoms started and what has altered since, even in just a few words.
Any puffiness of the gum, face or jaw is worth reporting straight away when you call.
Rapidly spreading swelling or trouble with breathing or swallowing goes to emergency medical care.
None of these is a diagnosis on its own. Together, though, they give the dentist a picture of what has been going on between the first twinge and now.
Persistent, worsening pain deserves a call, particularly when it interrupts sleep or makes biting difficult.
Infection can show up in ways other than pain, so mention anything new that you see, taste or feel.
Rinsing with warm salt water and gentle cleaning may help for now, but neither replaces a dental examination.
Knowing how things progressed gives your dentist a head start. Here is how your account generally feeds into an urgent visit.
Request your visitBy phone, tell us what started it, when it began, and how it differs now. We use this to work out how soon an assessment is needed.
Your description is compared with what the examination shows. X-rays can be added if they help reveal decay, infection or a fracture.
If pain or infection is present, the dentist addresses it as appropriate and may stabilize the tooth to limit any further problem.
After the diagnosis is explained, you can talk through the treatment options. Completing them may take another appointment.
When pain has kept you up, details are easy to forget. There is no need for anything elaborate, because a few lines on your phone or a scrap of paper will do.
Rapidly spreading or severe facial swelling, trouble breathing or swallowing, bleeding that will not stop, a serious injury to the face, or loss of consciousness needs 911 or emergency medical care, not a dental booking.
White chairs by the window, and black chairs around a consultation desk.
Many people hope a sore tooth will sort itself out, so there is no need to explain or apologize. Tell us if worry or past experiences have kept you from calling, and we can talk about what would help.
If poor sleep has left you drained, say so. It can make it harder to take in information, and you can ask for it again.
Show the dentist the most sensitive spot before the examination starts, so that it can be approached with care.
Ask why the problem got worse, if you want to know, and what the findings mean for that tooth.
Keeping it from building again
Relief after an urgent visit is welcome, but the underlying problem may still need finishing. Ask what is left to do, so a tooth that has calmed down does not flare up again untreated.
Definitive care may be booked separately from the first visit. Find out which appointment comes next and what it is meant to accomplish.
If symptoms start climbing again after your visit, get back in touch and do not wait until they reach the point they were at before.
Routine examinations are a chance for changes in your teeth and gums to be identified before they become urgent.
Still improving, but something feels off? Phone and tell us what you are noticing.

Ask our teamYou do not need to reach any particular level. If a dental problem is getting worse, describe it to us and let the clinic guide you, rather than trying to decide for yourself whether it counts.
Feeling better on medication does not settle what is causing the pain. Follow the package directions, tell us what you have taken, and phone so the cause can be assessed.
Swelling that spreads quickly, or that affects breathing or swallowing, needs emergency medical care. Smaller gum, jaw or face swelling should still prompt a call to the clinic as soon as possible.
How symptoms have developed can help show how urgent your situation is and what may be behind it. The dentist combines your account with the examination and any X-rays.
Do not assume the problem has resolved. A sudden change is worth mentioning, because a tooth that was very painful should be assessed even after the pain fades.
Phone Winnipeg North Dental at (204) 338-3003 and say that your symptoms are getting worse. Please call ahead of coming in, since our advice depends on what you tell us.
