Told things look stable
Periodontics for Whyte Ridge Residents
Stable is welcome news, and it is natural to wonder how much effort it still asks of you. Whyte Ridge residents can have that conversation at our McPhillips Street clinic.

Good news with a footnote
Stable describes today, and it can be kept going.
When periodontitis has been treated, stable generally means measurements have settled, bleeding has quieted and inflamed sites are under control. It does not mean the condition has vanished. Any support lost in the past remains part of your history, and plaque goes on forming daily.
Maintenance visits exist to protect that gain: new buildup gets disrupted, pockets are measured again, and any shift can be dealt with early. Whyte Ridge is an area in Winnipeg, and people from there who want to keep an eye on stable gums can arrange that care at Winnipeg North Dental on McPhillips Street.

Regular readings
Comparing each set of measurements with the last can reveal a change well before you would feel it.
Steady home care
Daily brushing and cleaning between teeth carry a great deal of the load in the months between visits.
Early response
A site that starts to change can be looked at sooner instead of going unnoticed until your next concern.

Your stay-stable appointment
What a check on stable gums involves.
Each visit aims to confirm that what you have achieved is holding, and to catch any drift.
Request your visit- 01
Report anything new
Tenderness, bleeding, a change in your bite or an update to your medications all deserve a mention as you settle in.
- 02
Clean and re-measure
New deposits are removed, and pocket depths are compared with earlier numbers to see whether each site is still holding.
- 03
Confirm your next date
Your interval depends on your history, current stability and risk, so it is fair to ask whether it should stay the same.

Helpful details about periodontics in Whyte Ridge.
Ask our teamIf everything is stable, why keep going to appointments?
Stability is usually kept up, not achieved once and for all. Plaque comes back and risk can change, so ongoing checks are how a new problem gets noticed early.
Does stable mean my gums are cured?
Periodontitis is generally thought of as managed, not permanently cured. A stable result is a real achievement, and it still calls for monitoring.
Could my visits become less frequent?
Possibly, but that is judged from your findings and risk. Ask about it during reassessment instead of stretching out the time on your own.
What are the warning signs that something is slipping?
Look out for renewed bleeding, tenderness, an odd taste, or teeth that seem to be moving. Not every change can be felt, though, which is why readings still matter.
Can my remaining pockets stay as they are?
Some sites may be monitored if they are not inflamed and can be kept clean. Whether that is suitable for yours would depend on what your measurements show over time.
How can a Whyte Ridge resident schedule maintenance?
Telephone (204) 338-3003 or use the request form here, and mention your past gum treatment. An urgent concern should always go by phone.
