A flute, trumpet or choir part asks a lot of your lips, teeth and tongue. If you live in Southdale and have a crown, bridge or denture coming, a dentist at our McPhillips Street clinic would want to hear about the music you make.
Let's find a time
Lab-made pieces are designed around what they need to do, and speech is part of that. For someone who plays a wind or brass instrument, or who sings regularly, the front teeth and the way the lips rest against them can matter in ways that ordinary talking doesn’t reveal. That’s useful for your dentist to know early.
Southdale sits within Winnipeg, and musicians from there who need lab-made work sit down with a dentist at Winnipeg North Dental on McPhillips Street. Your dentist can explain how your playing or singing might be taken into account, while bite, fit and the health of the tooth stay central.
Explore our dental laboratory
Naming your instrument or style of singing gives your dentist a clearer picture of daily demands.
Small changes in contour can be noticeable against your lips or tongue when you perform.
Your own playing or singing may reveal things a short fitting can’t.
Every restoration has to work with your bite and your gums. For players and singers, a few extra details may come into the conversation.
Fixed work near the front of the mouth can affect how your lips sit and how air moves past your teeth.
Removable pieces have to balance retention, speech and chewing, which can be tested hard by performing.
Your dentist can explain what’s realistic. Fit, function and the health of your mouth come first, and performance needs are considered within that.
You don’t need to mention your instrument only once. It can be relevant from the first conversation through to the final check.
Request your visitYour dentist assesses the area and explains options. Describe how often you play or sing, and any parts of your mouth that already feel sensitive.
Impressions or scans, bite records, shade details and photographs may be gathered. Ask whether your playing position is relevant to record.
Fabrication follows the prescription and the clinical information gathered, including details your dentist noted about function.
Contact, bite, comfort, appearance and function are checked. Say if something feels different against your lips or tongue.
Musicians often know their mouths in detail. Sharing that awareness can help your dentist understand what feels normal to you.
If you have a performance coming up, mention the date. Your dentist can tell you how the stages of work might relate to it, without promising a timeline.
A reclined blue chair with an overhead light, and a white desk with a keyboard and a coastal painting.
A musician may hear or feel a change that others wouldn’t notice. That sensitivity is useful, and you can share it without worrying about sounding fussy.
Ask whether you can try a few words or a hum to check how the piece feels.
Show your dentist exactly where your lip or tongue meets something unfamiliar.
Take time to settle into the new feel before deciding if something needs attention.
Back to rehearsal
Playing or singing with new work may show you things a fitting couldn’t. Note what you notice and share it, especially if it doesn’t improve.
Soreness where a mouthpiece rests against a new piece is a reason to have it looked at.
Describe any change in tone or clarity that persists after you’ve had time to adjust.
A knock from a mouthpiece can chip work. Gather the bits into a small box and leave them unglued.
A cracked crown the night before a concert is a phone call, not a form. Ring the clinic when something can’t wait.

Ask your dentist about this when your piece is placed. Follow any instructions you receive, and mention your practice schedule so the advice fits your routine.
