Restorative & Prosthodontics for Scotia Heights Residents

Contact the clinic instead of waiting. A restoration that lands too heavily should be checked and, where appropriate, adjusted, not left for the tooth to adapt.

It can. Spaces affect support and chewing habits, and they can narrow replacement options elsewhere, so an old gap may be part of the explanation.

Records guide how the piece is made, and the fit is then confirmed in your mouth. Small refinements at each stage help the finished work function comfortably.

Depending on complexity, these can include bite records, photographs, scans, models and imaging. Not everyone will need all of them.

Yes. Chewing forces and grinding both play a part, alongside the remaining tooth structure and how well the area is kept clean. A protective appliance is sometimes part of the discussion.

Wear and changes in the tissues underneath can alter how the appliance sits and meets the opposite teeth. An assessment can show whether adjusting, relining or replacing it is appropriate.

Plain words are enough: my bite feels different is a fine place to begin. Add it to the request form or phone (204) 338-3003, and the clinic will arrange a time with you.
