Treatment for Sensitive Teeth

Do you often hesitate before eating ice cream, hot foods and beverages such as coffee, or crunchy foods due to sensitive teeth?

Many people find they have tooth sensitivity when eating or drinking specific foods and beverages or while sustaining temperature changes in the mouth. But there are ways to reduce tooth discomfort that is a result of sensitive teeth.

What Causes Sensitive Teeth?

Sensitive teeth can stem from a number of various reasons; You could be brushing your teeth too hard and damaging the enamel; you could have gum disease which has left your roots exposed; or you could have a filling too close to a nerve that has been irritated.

One simple approach to avoiding toothaches created by sensitive teeth is to generally avoid eating anything that presents problems. If your tooth sensitivity is a result of gum disease or poor oral hygiene, we encourage you to come see one of our dentists right away. Gum disease can develop into health problems much more serious than tooth sensitivity, and should be immediately treated.

Alternatively, many people also find success with sensitive teeth toothpaste.
