Our clinic sits on McPhillips Street in the north part of the city. Here is what a tooth extraction involves, step by step, and how to plan your days around one.
Let's find a time
Winnipeg North Dental is located in Winnipeg North, at Unit 5, 2358 McPhillips Street, and tooth extractions are part of the general dentistry provided there. If you want to know what will happen and how much it may disrupt your week, this page is written for you.
We prefer to keep natural teeth, so nothing is removed before an exam and X-ray. Where extraction is the sensible way forward, you get careful treatment followed by clear directions for healing, eating and managing soreness.
Explore tooth extractions
The tooth is examined and X-rays are reviewed, so the recommendation is based on what is really there.
Written aftercare goes home with you, which helps once the details of the visit start to blur.
Your job, the procedure and how you feel all affect when you are ready to go back to normal routines.
Which approach is suitable comes down to how the tooth is positioned and what the X-ray reveals about its roots and the bone around it.
When a tooth can be removed predictably without extra steps, it is loosened and lifted out once the area is numb.
Some teeth need more access, and that is the situation this method is designed for.
You will know which approach is planned, and why, before treatment begins.
Nothing here is rushed past you. Interrupt at any stage if you want something explained.
Request your visitWe go over your health history, allergies, medications and X-rays, and make sure the planned tooth is clear to everyone.
The area is numbed with local anesthetic, then tested for comfort.
It is eased loose and taken out, using an incision or sectioning if your case calls for it.
Cleaning comes next, then bleeding control, plus gauze or stitches as appropriate.
You go home with written directions and a clear idea of which symptoms should prompt a phone call.
How soon you can return to work varies with the extraction and the kind of work you do, but it is wise to plan for rest right after the visit. Ask for guidance specific to your procedure.
If your job is physically demanding, mention it when you talk with the dentist so that the advice fits your situation.

Knowing the difference makes the visit less unnerving. A pushing sensation is expected as the tooth loosens, while anything sharp is something your dentist needs to hear about.
We check that the anesthetic has taken effect before the tooth is touched.
If you notice discomfort at any stage, let the dentist know without waiting.
Unfamiliar terms deserve a simple explanation, and it is fine to request one more than once.
Back at home
A little soreness, swelling and light oozing can happen and are not necessarily a concern. What you want to see is steady progress in the right direction.
Straws, smoking, vaping and forceful spitting can all dislodge it, so avoid them for as long as you were told.
Your usual oral hygiene continues, though the healing socket itself should not be directly disturbed at first.
Call about stubborn bleeding, worsening swelling, fever, drainage, a bad taste, unexpected numbness, or pain that sharply increases after a few days.
Should breathing or swallowing become difficult, get emergency medical care.

There is no single answer. It depends on how involved the extraction was, what your work demands and how you are feeling, so ask your dentist once the procedure is known.
With local anesthetic in place, you should not feel sharp pain, although you can expect a sense of pressure and some movement. Alert your dentist the moment you feel uncomfortable.
It may include a small incision, removing a limited amount of bone, or cutting the tooth into sections. This is chosen when a simple approach would not remove the tooth predictably.
Choose soft foods served cool or lukewarm, and do your chewing away from the extraction site. Your written instructions may add further detail for your situation.
Depending on why the tooth is coming out, one of these pages could help you prepare for the next conversation.
