Tooth Sensitivity: Causes, Prevention & Treatment

Passing on hot or cold foods and drinks. Using lukewarm water to brush your teeth. These are signs that you simply could also be affected by tooth sensitivity. Many folks learned that, if a tooth hurts, it could mean that a cavity has developed. While this might be the case, tooth sensitivity is usually something different entirely. Sensitivity can affect all teeth and make the entire mouth unnecessarily uncomfortable. We are proud to supply treatments or recommendations that alleviate this problem.

How does one Stop Sensitive Teeth Pain?

Tooth sensitivity is a common problem. This condition is characterized by discomfort or pain when teeth are exposed to certain temperatures and substances. Sensitivity is usually temporary and may desire a dull ache or a pointy, sudden pain. Sometimes, pain radiates into the tooth’s nerve. A few steps may reduce the discomfort of sensitive teeth. These include:

  • Using a soft-bristled toothbrush and delicate pressure when brushing.
  • Using desensitizing toothpaste made for sensitive teeth.
  • Using fluoridated toothpaste and mouthwash daily.
  • Avoiding sugary and acidic foods, like vinaigrette dressing.

 

 Causes of Tooth Sensitivity Several factors may contribute to tooth sensitivity. These include:

  • Brushing too hard. An excessive amount of pressure on the gums when brushing can wear this soft tissue down.
  • Hard brushing, also as a hard-bristled toothbrush, also can affect enamel.
  • These effects can make dentin more exposed and sensitive.
