I live in the Exchange District and lost my denture. Who should I call?+
Phone Winnipeg North Dental at (204) 338-3003, or send a request through the form. An appointment, once confirmed, would be at Unit 5, 2358 McPhillips Street, Winnipeg, MB R2V 4J6.
Can a lost denture be remade from old records?+
Don’t count on it. Supporting tissues change shape over time, so your dentist may need current information. Which records are required depends on the piece and on how your mouth has changed.
How long will it take to get a replacement?+
We can’t give one number here, since the kind of piece, its complexity, materials, lab steps and any trial or additional records all play a part, and your dentist can outline the sequence.
Can I wear an old denture I found in a drawer?+
Ask your dentist before relying on it. An older piece might not suit your mouth any more, and it may rub or press in ways that need checking.
Do I still need a lost night guard replaced?+
Possibly, though that’s worth reviewing with your dentist. They can consider why it was prescribed, what your teeth look like now and whether a replacement is appropriate.
