Sensitive Teeth...?

Okay, for some reason, my teeth have recently become ultra-sensitive. This has become rather painful. Are there any tips or tricks to help sensitive teeth, other than simply brushing with a toothpaste ment for the condition?

Sensitive Teeth...?
Usually tooth sensitivity (dentin hypersensitivity) presents as temporary tooth discomfort or pain after eating cold food, drinking cold liquids, or breathing cold air. ( If the pain is very high in intensity and prolonged, see your dentist because this may be a sign of an unhealthy tooth nerve )





Most commonly, the problem begins when the gums recede. Like a protective blanket, the gums cover the roots of teeth (see diagram below). As gums recede, the underlying tooth roots are exposed. Gums commonly recede for one of two reasons:





Improper heavy handed brushing of the teeth. It is estimated that 50-90% of people brush with too much pressure. Over weeks, months and years of brushing they remove significant gum tissue exposing the tooth roots.


Poor oral hygiene can lead to plaque build-up around teeth and gums. Over time this plaque hardens into tartar. Bacteria in this tartar are responsible for the gingivitis and periodontal disease that cause gum recession.





Preventing and treating tooth sensitivity is easy with the many products available





Use a desensitizing toothpaste such as Sensodyne


Use a flouride mouthwash


Our remineralising gel will rehydrate your teeth, specifically densigned for sensitivity caused by bleaching your teeth.


Avoid frequent intakes of acidic foods.


Wear a nightguard if your sensitvity is caused by grinding your teeth.


Use a toothbrush with soft bristles.


Brush your teeth gently, an electric toothbrush will help, particularly one with a pressure sensor such as the Braun Oral-B Professional Care 8500 Delux


You should visit your dentist if you experience tooth sensitivity so that they can recommend the best treatment whether over the counter or surgical. If none of the above methods relieve your tooth sensitivity then it is likely the dentist will carry out a procedure called iontophoresis whereby the sensitivity is treated with a positive electric current while flouride is applied.
Reply:Have you had your teeth whitened? That causes sensitivity. You could also have receeding gums somewhere in your mouth that are exposing the teeth more. This can lead to sensitivity too, because now hot and cold can reach the nerves. Some toothpastes, like sensodyne, are good for sensitivity. Crest Pro Health also claims to reduce sensitivity, but I found that it made my teeth more sensitive. You could also be getting a cavity, so definitely have a dental check up.
Reply:There is a toothpaste called Sensodyne it is supposed to help sensitive teeth.Hope you get relief soon!
Reply:Always use a soft toothbrush. They also make extra soft toothbrushes for sensitivity. Sensitivity toothpaste helps but only if you brush and don%26#039;t rinse. If you immediately rinse after you will rinse all the active ingredient off. Brush, spit, do not eat/drink for 30 minutes. All sensitive toothpastes are the same. Fluoride can also help w/ sensitivity, such as a fluoride rinse ( once again you cannot rinse it off, eat/drink for 30 minutes.) Most sensitivity is caused by brushing too hard/ brushing w/ a medium/hard toothbrush. Which causes recession of the gum line and abrasion of the tooth. This exposes the root surface which has no enamel and the root surface has multiple pores that lead to multiple nerves which pick up all that cold stuff we drink. Brush w/ very gentle circles w/ very light pressure. If it remains ultra sensitive you may need fillings in these areas b/c the abrasion has become too deep.
Reply:Sensitive teeth gives you toothaches or shall we say terrible pain on one of your teeth or the gum-line. It is actually a symptom of a severe or worst dental problem. Aside from giving you sleepless nights of painful miseries and difficult chewing, it could actually threaten your health and worst could kill you. Use a naturally made home remedy for sensitive teeth. It%26#039;s none other than OraMD. It really works best and maintains your mouth clean and fresh.
