You have a dentist, but they are closed, booked up or away, and this tooth will not wait. Our clinic on McPhillips Street in Winnipeg is one more number you can try.
Let's find a time
Having a dentist you trust does not stop a tooth from breaking on the wrong day. If you cannot reach your regular office, or the wait they have offered feels too long for what you are experiencing, you are free to ask another clinic about being assessed.
If you live in River Trail, your urgent care would happen at Winnipeg North Dental, on McPhillips Street in Winnipeg. On the phone, say that you normally go elsewhere and describe your symptoms, including whether they are changing. We will use what you tell us to judge how soon you should come in.
Explore emergency dentistry
The name of your regular office, and any recent work done there, is useful background for us.
Tell us about the pain, swelling or damage so the clinic can weigh how quickly to see you.
Raise any questions about returning to your usual dentist for later treatment when you speak with us.
You do not have to judge how serious your problem is before phoning. Still, it can help to know which sorts of problem the clinic wants to hear about promptly.
These are the concerns we would prefer you did not leave until your own office reopens or has an opening.
If the trouble involves earlier treatment, a different dentist can still examine the area and explain what is happening.
Tell us what you know about earlier treatment, but do not worry if you cannot recall it in detail. The dentist can still carry out an examination.
We will not have your chart or history in front of us, so we begin by gathering what is needed for the emergency at hand. Broadly speaking, the visit goes like this.
Request your visitYou describe the problem, when it began and any recent treatment. The clinic’s focused questions help determine how urgent your situation is.
The dentist goes through your symptoms and examines the area. Because we will not have earlier images, appropriate X-rays may be recommended.
Attention turns to immediate risk and discomfort. That might mean addressing pain or infection, or stabilizing a tooth so it is better protected.
You hear the diagnosis and your realistic options. This is the time to ask how any further treatment could be arranged, and with whom.
A complete file is not necessary to call us. If you can gather some information quickly, though, it gives the dentist more context about what has been done before.
Difficulty breathing or swallowing, severe swelling in the face, uncontrolled bleeding, a major facial injury or a loss of consciousness requires 911 or emergency medical care, whichever dentist you usually see.
A treatment room and reception desk at our clinic.
It can feel strange to be in pain somewhere unfamiliar, with people who do not yet know you. Let us know what you find difficult about dental visits, and what has helped in the past.
You know how your dental visits usually go, so mention anything that has made them easier for you.
The dentist here has not met you before, so request a simpler explanation whenever you need one.
Feel free to ask what was done at this visit, so you can pass it on accurately later.
Back to your usual routine
When a problem has been stabilized, the rest of the care still has to happen somewhere. Clear this up at your visit, so nobody is left guessing.
Ask how any remaining treatment would be arranged, and whether you could continue it with your own dentist or at this clinic.
Your regular dentist will want to know what was found and done. Ask how those records could be shared if you wish.
If you are returning to your regular dentist, contact their office once it is reachable and explain that you had urgent care.

Helpful details about emergency dentistry in River Trail.
Ask our teamYes, you can phone and describe what is happening. Tell us you usually go to another office, so we can ask the right questions about your history and symptoms.
An urgent problem and your long-term choice of dentist are separate questions. Ask how follow-up treatment could be handled, and make your decision once you know what the tooth needs.
Ask about this on the phone, and have your office’s name ready. The dentist decides which X-rays are needed for your emergency, which could include taking new ones.
Hospital care comes first for breathing or swallowing difficulty, rapidly spreading swelling, serious facial trauma or bleeding you cannot stop. Otherwise, isolated tooth pain is generally a matter for a dentist to assess.
Mention what you know, such as whether a temporary filling or crown was placed. Knowing this helps the dentist understand what they are looking at during the examination.
Try the phone at (204) 338-3003 before anything else. Openings change from day to day, so speaking with someone beforehand gives the clinic a chance to advise you and get ready.
Your urgent assessment may point toward a further treatment. These pages explain it, and an examination decides whether it suits you.
