Facing a tooth that may have to come out is unsettling. Come in from anywhere in the city, see what the X-ray shows, and understand every realistic option before anything is decided.
Let's find a time
Saving a natural tooth is normally where we start. Removal enters the conversation once a tooth can no longer be restored with any confidence, or when taking it out serves a larger treatment plan.
People from all over Winnipeg reach this point in different ways: a molar that finally split, an ache that keeps returning, a crown with little left beneath it. In each case we look at the examination and X-ray with you, then explain why extraction is or is not on the table.
Explore tooth extractions
You hear what the findings mean for this particular tooth, not a general rule about teeth like it.
Repair, root canal therapy, watching the tooth and removal can each be compared where they apply.
Chewing, appearance and later treatment all belong in the discussion before a tooth is taken out.
Something can be technically possible and still be a poor bet. That is why the decision rests on the long-term outlook and on what you want from your teeth.
A tooth with enough support left may have other paths open to it, depending on what the assessment finds.
Extraction may be advised once keeping the tooth is no longer predictable or no longer suits the wider plan.
Bite forces, bone and gum support, cracks and your own goals all shape the recommendation, so an examination has to come first.
Technique varies with where the tooth sits, the shape of its roots, the surrounding bone and how much of it can be seen.
Request your visitYour health history, medications and allergies are confirmed, along with the X-rays and which tooth is being treated.
Local anesthetic goes in first, and we make sure you are comfortable before any removal starts.
Most of the work is loosening the tooth. A small incision or dividing the tooth into sections is occasionally necessary.
After cleaning the site and controlling bleeding, we place gauze or sutures as needed and hand you written aftercare instructions.
You are allowed to care about this tooth. If you hope to keep it, say so, and tell us what matters most to you about how your smile looks and works.
Costs vary with the procedure and any replacement you choose, so request an estimate and have your insurance or CDCP information handy when you speak with the clinic.
Our treatment room and waiting area on McPhillips Street.
Understanding usually eases worry more than reassurance does. Ask to see the X-ray, ask what happens if you wait, and tell us if something does not sit right with you.
Your X-ray can be a useful way to understand why a tooth is or is not considered restorable.
Removal should begin only after we have confirmed the anesthetic is doing its job.
Pressure and movement are normal to feel, but discomfort is a reason to alert your dentist immediately.
The days afterward
The clot that forms in the socket protects it while early healing takes place. Your own written instructions take priority, because recovery differs from one person and procedure to another.
Bite on gauze as you were shown. Keep eating soft foods that are cool or lukewarm, on the opposite side from the socket.
Contact us about bleeding pressure will not settle, pain that climbs after a few days, or growing swelling, fever, drainage or a bad taste.
Some gaps can be left alone, while others may call for an implant, bridge or partial denture. Your bite, remaining teeth and priorities guide that choice.
Trouble breathing or swallowing needs emergency medical care, not a call to the dental office.

Possibly, if the tooth is restorable and the trouble lies in an inflamed or infected pulp. Remaining structure and gum and bone support also count, so the answer depends on your examination and X-ray.
Certain findings can be observed over time, provided they are stable and do not carry unacceptable risk. Ask what changes would alter that advice.
Pain alone does not determine a tooth’s outlook. A deep crack, bone loss or too little sound structure can make a tooth hard to keep even when it feels fine.
No. Its position, your bite, appearance, the teeth that remain and your long-term plan all affect whether replacement is advised, and when.
That depends on the procedure involved and anything that follows it. Ask the clinic for an estimate and have your insurance or CDCP details ready, since coverage varies by plan.
Some of these aim to keep a tooth and others replace one. Your assessment will show which of them could apply to you.
