Maybe your tongue keeps finding an edge, or a denture rubs in one spot. Jefferson residents can ask to have those small irritations with custom work looked at.
Let's find a time
It’s easy to decide that a small irritation isn’t worth anyone’s time. But a restoration has relationships to keep up with the teeth beside it, the teeth it meets and the gumline, and a denture is resting on tissues that can change. Tiny mismatches are often how those relationships make themselves known.
Adjustments are normal in custom treatment, so asking isn’t a complaint. If you’re in Jefferson and something has been nagging at you, whether new or long established, your dentist at Winnipeg North Dental on McPhillips Street can evaluate it and explain what, if anything, should change.

A rough edge or odd spot is a legitimate reason to raise your hand and ask.
Your dentist looks at how the piece relates to the teeth and tissues around it.
Adjustment, repair or replacement may be appropriate, or nothing may need changing.
A rubbing spot doesn’t explain itself. Tracing it back generally means considering how the piece was meant to sit and what has been going on in your mouth since.
Fixed work is surrounded on all sides, so an irritation may involve any of the surfaces it touches.
Removable pieces rest against soft tissue and move a little in use, which brings different possibilities into play.
This list isn’t a way to diagnose yourself. Finding the actual cause requires examining the piece and the tissues in person.
A concern about existing work may be simpler or more involved than a new restoration, so the number of steps depends on what your dentist discovers.
Request your visitPoint out the spot if you can, and describe what you’re doing when it bothers you, then let your dentist examine the area.
A small adjustment may be all that’s called for, whereas a repair or replacement could need fresh scans, impressions or bite details.
Where new work is prescribed, it’s produced from the clinical information your dentist has gathered.
Contact, bite and comfort are reviewed in your mouth again, and you can say whether the original annoyance has changed.
Intermittent irritations can be difficult to reproduce in a dental chair. A short note about what you noticed, and when, gives your dentist a head start.
Please don’t file, sand or reshape anything yourself. Altering the piece could make it harder to assess or correct.
A treatment room and the waiting area at our clinic.
Some new dental work takes a little settling in. Even so, a spot that rubs, catches, feels high or interferes with speech ought to be evaluated, and timely adjustments help protect your tissues.
Let us know if your tongue keeps returning to one rough or sharp place.
Mention where things catch around a crown, bridge or other restoration.
Say whether a sore cheek or gum seems to line up with a piece of dental work.
After it’s addressed
An adjustment changes how a piece meets your mouth, so give some attention to how it feels afterward. If the same area still troubles you, or a new one starts, let the clinic know.
A problem that comes back provides useful information. Report it so your dentist can look at the area again.
Changing one contact can draw your attention to another, so describe the new location when you call.
Damage calls for assessment before repair. Gather all the fragments in a safe container, and keep household glue well away from them.
If you can’t tell whether something warrants a visit, the clinic can talk it through by phone.

Not at all. Rubbing, catching or a high-feeling spot is exactly the sort of detail that can be evaluated rather than merely put up with.
You can certainly call and ask how the clinic would approach it. Your dentist would need to examine the restoration or appliance and your mouth before saying what’s appropriate.
It depends on what’s found. An adjustment, repair or replacement could each be appropriate, and in some cases no change may be needed at all.
Please leave that to your dentist. Home attempts could change how the piece fits and make a proper correction more complicated.
