Do you feel a shooting pain in your teeth when eating or drinking something hot? Does the
thought of biting into an ice cream or a cold, hard apple make you wince? Sensitive teeth
can be a burden for many people and can be caused by a variety of factors. It is always
important to seek advice from a dental professional so that the source of the problem can
be identified and treated.
There are several causes of sensitivity:
- Temporary pain can be experienced after tooth whitening procedures and is treated with over the counter painkillers.
- Dental erosion, or the loss of tooth enamel, can also cause sensitivity. Enamel is the hard outer coating of a tooth that protects the sensitive dentine underneath. If enamel is worn away or eroded, this dentine is exposed which can lead to pain and sensitivity, which can be worsened with extreme temperatures.
- Erosion can be caused by your diet (frequent consumption of high sugar or high acid food or drink), tooth brushing habits (brushing too hard), tooth grinding, certain medical conditions and eating disorders.
For top tips on protecting your enamel and for effective treatment of tooth
sensitivity, come to the practice for a check-up and we will create an
individualised care plan for you.
