Some people want to understand the reason for every step before agreeing to it, and to avoid anything extra. Wolseley residents can request a periodontal assessment at Winnipeg North Dental on McPhillips Street, where each suggestion is linked to something that was actually measured.
Let's find a time
Gum care can range from a few changes at the sink to treatment below the gumline and beyond. Which of these makes sense for you depends on where disease is active, how far it has gone and what is contributing to it. Without measurements, there is no good way to know whether you need very little or quite a lot.
That is why the assessment comes first. Pocket depths, bleeding, recession, deposits and suitable images form the evidence, and the plan is built from it. If your gums are healthy or only mildly inflamed, the advice may be modest. If more is needed, you can ask which finding is driving each recommendation.

Readings and images are gathered before any treatment is put forward.
Ask which measurement led to a suggestion, and you will be shown.
You can take time to consider a plan rather than agreeing on the spot.
There is no standard package for gum disease. Each person’s plan is assembled from their own findings, and simpler steps are used where they are enough.
Milder findings sometimes call mainly for better daily plaque control.
These findings tend to call for treatment beyond the home routine.
Adjunctive therapies may be mentioned in some plans. If one is suggested, you can ask what it adds, why it fits your findings and what would happen without it.
A thorough assessment is what allows the plan to be kept to what you truly need.
Request your visitLet us know you want to understand each step and keep treatment to what is necessary. We also review medical conditions, medications, tobacco use and family history.
Gentle probing around each tooth notes pocket depth, bleeding, recession and attachment changes.
Mobility, bite, deposits and appropriate dental images help evaluate bone and reveal areas that are difficult to keep clean.
You hear which areas are active and why each part of the treatment and maintenance plan is being suggested.
If you use natural or over-the-counter oral care products, bring them along. Knowing what you already do helps the advice build on it.
You can ask about visit length and fees when you book. Your benefits provider can confirm what any plan would cover.

Asking why a step is needed is welcome. Understanding your own findings makes it easier to decide with confidence.
You can ask to have your readings or images walked through with you.
There is no need to commit to a plan during the appointment itself.
If there is something you would rather avoid, say so, and the trade-offs can be explained.
Checking that it worked
Measuring again after treatment answers a key question for anyone who prefers minimal care: did the simpler steps do enough?
New measurements are compared with earlier ones to show which areas improved and which did not.
Maintenance timing depends on your disease history, current stability and risk, so it is set for you.
If your gums are stable, the focus stays on the daily habits that keep them that way.
If symptoms flare between visits, call the clinic to describe what has changed.

Ask our teamRecommendations are based on your measurements and images. You can ask which finding supports each step and decide in your own time.
Sometimes, particularly with gingivitis and light buildup. Where pockets or attachment loss are present, professional treatment below the gumline is usually needed as well.
Bring any products you use so they can be discussed. Rinses do not remove hardened deposits under the gums, which is why the assessment checks for them.
It is an additional treatment used alongside the main steps in some cases. If one is suggested, ask what it is intended to do and why it suits your findings.
You can ask what the findings suggest might happen without that step. Choices are yours to make, and the plan can be discussed again at reassessment.
You can phone (204) 338-3003 or submit the form on this page. Mention that you would like each step explained, and the clinic will respond about a time.
These are options that may or may not come up. Your measurements are what determine whether any of them applies.
