Restorative & Prosthodontics for East Kildonan Residents

Life interrupts dental work all the time. A temporary still in place, or an implant that never received its tooth, is worth having examined, however much time has gone by.

Picking up where things were left

A pause doesn’t have to be the end of the plan.

Maybe a job changed, money got tight, or the next appointment simply slipped away. Whatever the reason, unfinished restorative work tends to sit quietly until something shifts. If you live in East Kildonan, an area in Winnipeg, and have work left in that state, the first step is finding out how it has held up.

Temporaries are built for short-term protection and function, so one that has stayed on well past its intended time deserves a look. Teeth, gums and bite may all have changed since the original records were taken. At our McPhillips Street clinic, an examination and suitable X-rays would show whether the earlier plan still fits or needs rethinking.

Temporaries aren’t the finish

They are meant to shield a prepared tooth for a while. They were never designed to stand in for the final restoration.

Old records can age

Scans and bite information reflect your mouth on the day they were taken, so fresh ones may be required.

No need to explain yourself

Why the work stopped matters far less than what the tooth, implant or gum looks like today.

Restarting without a fuss

Finding out where you stand.

Whatever paperwork you still have is welcome, though a missing folder shouldn’t stop you from asking.

Request your visit
  1. 01

    Recall what was started

    Jot down the treatment as you remember it, roughly when it stopped, and whatever you recall about the next planned stage.

  2. 02

    Get the current picture

    The tooth or implant site, the gums around it and your bite are assessed as they stand now, not as they were then.

  3. 03

    Decide on the path forward

    Ask whether the work can carry on as first planned, or whether something different now makes more sense for you.

Your questions, answered.

Helpful details about restorative & prosthodontics in East Kildonan.

Ask our team
My temporary crown has been on for far too long. Is that a problem?

It can be. These covers are made for short-term use, and the tooth beneath still needs protecting. Book an examination so its condition and the state of the temporary can be checked.

An implant was placed, but no tooth was ever put on it. What now?

The implant, surrounding gum and bone would need assessing, along with the space available for a final tooth. Bring any details you have about where and when it was placed.

Can the old scans or impressions still be used?

That depends on how much has changed. A restoration has to fit your present teeth and bite, so new records are often part of restarting after a long gap.

Part of my bridge work was done, then I stopped. Have the teeth been harmed?

Prepared anchor teeth rely on some form of coverage, so an exam is the way to find out. Decay, gum changes and shifts in position are all things your dentist would look for.

I lost my temporary months ago and nothing hurts. Should I still come in?

Yes, since a shaped tooth left uncovered can change without causing pain. Call the clinic to explain, and mention how long it has been exposed.

Will I have to start the plan over from the beginning?

Not necessarily. Some stages may still stand, while others may need repeating. The answer becomes clear once the current condition of the area has been reviewed.

How does an East Kildonan resident restart stalled treatment?

Phone (204) 338-3003 or send a request saying which work was left unfinished. Your visit would then take place at the McPhillips Street clinic in Winnipeg.

Ready to resume?

Tell us what was left unfinished.

A rough description is plenty. Someone from the clinic will reply about setting a time to have it checked.
