Drills, needles, the unknown. If nerves have kept you from getting a tooth repaired, knowing what you may feel at each stage can make the decision easier to think about.

Knowing what to expect
Fewer surprises can make it feel more manageable.
Plenty of people put off restorative work because they dread it more than they dread the tooth. If that describes you, and you are a resident of North End Winnipeg weighing a crown, an onlay or a replacement tooth, this page sets out what these appointments usually involve in plain terms.
For preparing a tooth, local anesthetic is normally used, and you may notice pressure or vibration. Some sensitivity or gum tenderness can follow and should ease. Telling us you are anxious before anything starts gives your dentist at McPhillips Street the chance to explain each step, and to hear what would help you most.

A little clarity before your visit
Your questions, answered.
Helpful details about restorative & prosthodontics in North End Winnipeg.
Ask our teamWill I feel anything while a crown is being prepared?
Numbing normally means that pressure and vibration are the main sensations. Afterward the tooth or gum may feel tender for a while, which should settle down.
What if the numbing does not feel like it is working?
Let your dentist know straight away. Comfort is checked before work starts, and it is always appropriate to speak up during the appointment.
Why does the tooth feel strange once the numbness wears off?
Some short-lived tenderness is common after a tooth has been worked on, and it ought to fade. Let the clinic know if it lingers or seems to be growing.
I have been avoiding the dentist for a long time. Will I be judged?
A long absence is simply useful background. The purpose of the visit is to understand where things are and what you would like to do about it.
Is getting an implant as frightening as it sounds?
It is a surgical step, and it is fair to want details. Ask how the placement appointment works, what recovery usually involves, and which alternatives do not need surgery.
What is normal after a restorative appointment, and what is not?
Temporary sensitivity is common and should improve. Call if your bite feels high, a restoration moves, or discomfort is not getting better as expected.
How can a North End Winnipeg resident take the first step without much fuss?
A brief phone call to (204) 338-3003 is enough, or a line in the request form saying you feel nervous. The visit itself would be at our clinic on McPhillips Street.
