Your coffee ended ten minutes ago and the tooth is still aching. If that sounds familiar, our clinic in the city’s north end can look into why, and whether root canal therapy is the answer.
Let's find a time
A quick twinge from ice water is one thing. Discomfort that carries on well after the cold or heat has gone can suggest something different: tissue inside the tooth that is inflamed and may not be able to settle. Tenderness when chewing, swelling or a recurring pimple on the gum are other signs that deserve attention.
We are a dental clinic in Winnipeg North, at Unit 5, 2358 McPhillips Street, and this is where your tooth would be examined and treated. Not all of these symptoms end in a root canal. Once the dentist has seen the tooth and any necessary X-rays, you will hear what they suggest and which options make sense.
Explore root canal therapy
Tell us how the tooth has been behaving, and we’ll use that history alongside the examination.
X-rays and a careful look help separate root canal cases from other causes of pain.
Assessment, treatment and follow-up are all arranged through the McPhillips Street clinic.
Symptoms can shift as a tooth changes, and they do not tell the full story on their own. Here is what we pay attention to, and what happens if the canals need treating.
None of these confirms a diagnosis, yet each one is a sensible reason to have the tooth examined.
Treatment clears the affected tissue from the inside and closes off the space that held it, leaving the outer tooth in place.
Pain can fade even while a problem remains, so a tooth that has gone quiet may still be worth mentioning at your appointment.
How many appointments you need will come down to the tooth’s anatomy, whether infection is present and what restoration is planned.
Request your visitWhen did the ache start? Does anything ease it? Those details, along with your medical history, give the dentist a useful starting point.
An examination and appropriate X-rays show what symptoms cannot. Sometimes the cause turns out to be something other than the inner tissue.
If the tooth can be kept, the reasons for root canal therapy are laid out for you. If it cannot be predictably restored, extraction may enter the discussion.
The canals are cleaned and sealed, in one sitting or across several. A filling and, frequently, a crown then return the tooth to everyday use.
Toothaches are hard to describe from memory. A few quick notes over the days before your appointment can reveal a pattern that helps the dentist understand what is going on.
Is the pain severe, or is your face or gum swelling? Phone the clinic and do not wait on a form request.
Inside our clinic in north Winnipeg.
Inflammation that is present before treatment can influence how a tooth feels during and after care. Letting the team know how sore things are gives us a clearer picture before anesthetic is placed.
The tooth is anesthetized before treatment, and you may still sense pressure or vibration.
Feeling a sharp pain is not something to sit through; let the dentist know at once.
Ask for a moment whenever you need one, and we can agree on a signal beforehand.
Afterwards
Sealing the canals deals with the inside of the tooth. Rebuilding the outside, and watching how it settles, are what come next.
Short-lived tenderness under pressure can occur, and it ought to improve. Pain or swelling that is marked, increasing or off course is a reason to get in touch.
A treated molar or premolar often needs a crown or other protective coverage. Waiting too long on this step can expose the tooth to risk.
A root-canal-treated tooth can still develop a fresh problem. Continuing routine care lets changes be spotted before they grow.

Perhaps, perhaps not. Sensitivity that fades right away and pain that lingers can mean quite different things, and a number of conditions cause them. The dentist needs to examine the tooth and take appropriate X-rays to tell you which applies.
Please mention it to the clinic before deciding. Some teeth that require treatment cause surprisingly little discomfort, and a deep problem may be present even when pain has eased, so an examination can still be useful.
One appointment is enough for some teeth. Others may need more, for instance where the anatomy is complicated or infection is active. Once the tooth is assessed, you can ask what sequence to expect.
Not in every single case, but many do need coverage over their chewing cusps. For front teeth, the advice depends more on how much tooth is left and how your bite works.
Depending on what the examination shows, one of these may become part of the conversation about your tooth.
