You need to know what this will do to your week. Get a realistic picture of the appointments, the first few days and the home care that follows.
Let's find a time
Busy people tend to ask the same practical things. How many appointments? What will I feel like afterward? Can I eat normally? This treatment cleans roots inside periodontal pockets, so the answers depend on how much of your mouth is involved.
If you live in Leila North, your appointments would be at our McPhillips Street clinic in Winnipeg. Nobody can give you an accurate schedule before your gums have been assessed, but you can come prepared to discuss what your week looks like.
Explore scaling & root planning
After assessment, ask whether treatment will take one sitting or be split into sections.
A bit of soreness or sensitivity afterward is common, and it varies with how much was treated.
Instructions are fitted to the tools and routines you are likely to keep using.
It helps to see this as two separate things to plan for. The first happens in the chair, and the second happens during your ordinary routine.
Root surfaces in the planned areas are cleaned below the gums, typically with local anaesthetic in place.
Your mouth may feel a little different for a while. These effects depend on the extent of treatment and should generally settle.
Your plan comes from an assessment with the dentist, and it will reflect your gums first. Do mention your scheduling limits, so they can be part of the discussion.
Treatment for periodontitis stretches past the cleaning itself. These are the milestones to pencil in.
Request your visitBleeding, pocket readings, calculus and dental images are reviewed. Bring your calendar along, as it may make the next conversation easier.
Sections may be planned so there is sufficient time for freezing and careful instrumentation. Ask which days would suit a sensitive mouth afterward.
Nothing is measured during this stretch. Your only task is keeping up the home care you were shown and watching for anything unexpected.
We check the tissues against your starting findings. Stable areas move on to maintenance visits, and the frequency of those visits is personal.
You know your commitments better than anyone. Consider when you would rather not be dealing with a tender mouth, such as a big presentation, and let us know when you are arranging dates.
Ask about expected costs and how long to set aside at the booking stage. Both change depending on how many areas are being treated.
A treatment room and the front desk at our clinic.
Dividing treatment can leave adequate time for each area, even if squeezing everything in sounds more convenient. Your comfort and your calendar are both worth raising when appointments are set.
If your afternoon is booked, ask what to expect from the freezing used in your own treatment.
Temperature sensitivity may be manageable with recommended products. Use these only as directed, and report symptoms that are increasing.
A method you’ll really use is more valuable than a long list. Say which tools fit your routine.
Back to your routine
Long-term gum stability depends on what happens between appointments. It doesn’t have to be elaborate, but it does have to be consistent, and timing for your return visits will be chosen with your own findings in mind.
Your cleaning routine for tricky spaces should still work on your most hectic days, so tell us if something is impractical.
Put your reassessment in your calendar right away. Results can’t be judged until the tissues have responded, and missing this leaves questions open.
Busy or not, phone us about bleeding that goes on, growing swelling or severe pain, or any problem outside your instructions.

Ask our teamMany factors play into how you feel, including how much was treated and the freezing used. Ask about your particular plan, and tell us what your day looks like afterward.
If chewing feels tender, choose softer foods for a while and steer clear of anything that irritates the treated area. Your instructions after treatment take priority.
Sometimes it can. Where many areas or deep pockets are involved, splitting treatment into sections allows time for anaesthetic, thorough cleaning and your comfort.
Yes, plaque control should carry on, using the technique and tools recommended for those spots. If you are uncertain how to do this, the clinic can go over it with you.
Recall timing is personalized and gets set after reassessment. It depends on how your gums have responded and how stable they appear.
