Teachers, sales staff and anyone else who is on show all day may wonder how a frozen lip or a temporary will come across. Polo Park residents can ask at our Winnipeg clinic.
Let's find a time
If you spend your days presenting, serving customers or teaching a class, a dental appointment raises questions that have little to do with teeth. Will you be able to speak clearly afterward? Is a temporary going to show? Should you book around an important meeting?
Since most of this treatment involves back teeth, it is often less visible than people fear, though every mouth is different. Numbness after preparation can affect speech for a while, so planning that day with care makes sense. If you live in Polo Park, which is in Winnipeg, those plans would be built around visits to Winnipeg North Dental on McPhillips Street.
Explore inlays & onlays
Mention big presentations or demanding shifts when you start to arrange the preparation visit.
Find out how visible a temporary or the final piece would be on your particular tooth.
Freezing can leave your lip or tongue feeling odd until it fades, so plan with that in mind.
An inlay or onlay is a custom restoration for a selected back tooth with moderate decay, a fracture or dental work that is failing. Shade is chosen during the process.
With this option, a custom piece occupies the central chewing area and the cusps remain uncovered. It is an option where surrounding structure is suitable.
A damaged cusp may need more coverage. An onlay supplies that over chosen areas, so surfaces that do not need it can stay as they are.
Your schedule cannot decide your restoration. The dentist looks at what your tooth needs, and that might also be a filling or a crown.
Each stage is listed here along with what it might mean for someone who needs to speak afterward. Ask about your own case, since experiences vary.
Request your visitWalls, cusps, cracks, decay, bite and root health are all checked. This stage is mostly about looking and talking things over.
Freezing is common here, so this could be the appointment to keep well away from a major presentation. Damaged material is removed and the tooth is shaped.
A scan or an impression captures your bite, contacts and tooth shape, and you help pick a shade. A temporary may go on if the piece is to be made between visits.
With the fit and bite verified, the restoration is adhesively secured and polished. Ask whether freezing will be needed at this visit too.
Take a few minutes before you get in touch to think through your busiest speaking days. This gives the office something concrete to work with when it suggests a time.
A tooth that has broken or become painful should not wait for a quieter week. Pick up the phone and let the clinic know right away.
The reception counter and a dental chair.
An odd-feeling lip can make you self-conscious in a meeting, even when others hardly notice it. If you can, allow yourself some breathing room following any appointment with freezing.
Local anesthetic is usually part of preparation, which keeps the tooth comfortable while it is being shaped.
Your tongue may notice a temporary at first. Let the office know if it feels rough or seems to interfere.
Hot coffee between meetings may feel different for a while, as temporary sensitivity should improve over time.
Long days, ongoing care
It is easy to rush your cleaning when your days are full, and it is just as easy to ignore a bite that feels slightly wrong. Neither is worth letting slide on a restored tooth.
Make time each day for careful cleaning along the margins, even on the longest days.
Tearing open a package at your desk is exactly the kind of habit to give up.
A high bite, a rough edge, movement or sensitivity that is not improving are reasons to phone.
How a restoration holds up over time is never certain. Remaining tooth, bonding, bite, grinding and hygiene are all part of it.

Ask our teamFreezing can make your lip or tongue feel strange and may make some words harder to form until it wears off. Ask what to expect for the specific tooth being treated.
It is better not to count on it after a visit involving freezing. If the presentation matters, tell the office so it can be considered when your appointment is arranged.
On a back tooth, a temporary may feel unfamiliar to your tongue more than it affects your words. Call the clinic if it feels bulky or sharp.
That varies with where the tooth sits and how much shows when you speak. A shade is selected during the process, and you can talk about appearance with the dentist.
Local anesthetic is the usual approach for preparing a tooth, because it keeps the work comfortable. Share your concern with the dentist and ask how the day should be planned.
