How do you cure sensitive teeth?

My gum around one of my teeth has all of a sudden become sensitvie in the past few days and i'm struggling to drink or eat any cold things. Even brushing my teeth is uncomfortable. Does anybody know what could have caused it and how i can cure it?

How do you cure sensitive teeth?
Doesn't necessarily sound like a "sensitive tooth" to me, therefore I doubt Sensodyne toothpaste would help much, although I guess it's worth a shot.





Do you floss regularly? Sensitive gums are a sign of periodontal disease. Yes, it could be something else, but I feel like it is often from improper oral hygiene practices. (It's difficult to do it right, many adults don't know how!)





You should see a dentist, but in the meantime, try flossing the area. I would use a gentle floss like "Glide" by Crest. I wouldn't suggest brushing even harder in that area as this problem could also result from brushing too hard. Just make sure that you clean the tooth surface thoroughly, light to medium pressure is plenty.





Also, keep in mind that some people are simply more susceptible to periodontal disease than others. Unfortunately, you may be unable to avoid it even with the best of oral hygiene habits. And others that you may know might have perfectly healthy gums and have never flossed in their lives - it varies from person to person.





You should see the dentist because periodontal disease is a major cause of tooth loss and plays a significant role in fatal heart disease.





It's important to take care of your gums!

Reply:Sounds like you have something stuck in the gumline by that tooth. Go to the dentist, he'll clean it out. In the meantime use OraGel or something like that to take away the pain.
Reply:I had something similar a few weeks ago, buy a new toothbrush and brush firmly around the gum line, it cleared in a couple of days.
