If you’re someone whose teeth are simply prone to dental sensitivity, then we will guide you through some important steps to take to keep from dealing with serious discomfort. For the most part, you’ll be able to make mindful decisions on a daily basis by avoiding anything aggravating. As for our contribution, we will talk with you about products like specialized toothpaste that will help desensitize your smile.
If you’re experiencing dental sensitivity, remember that this is a very frequent symptom of a functional issue we call bruxism. Not really sure what that is? Well, in a nutshell, it’s a disorder that happens because of an involuntary but chronic motion of your jaws, which causes you to either grind your teeth (back and forth) or clench them (together). All of the constant pressure, contact, friction, etc., can erode and irritate your teeth, which will eventually cause sensitivity to occur. While this doesn’t sound so wonderful, we remind patients that we offer bruxism treatment (it’s very gentle, as you just need to wear a mouthguard during sleep) and can help you address damage if it has affected your teeth.
You could also be dealing with one of the hygiene-related issues you may be imagining is causing your sensitivity. You might not love imagining that this is the cause but we remind you that we offer comprehensive restorative care to address what might be causing dental sensitivity. If it’s a damaged tooth, we offer crowns. If it’s decay, we offer fillings. We can help you, so come in! (Reminder: Our restorative treatments are gentle and comfortable).
When your main concern is the sensitivity that has begun affecting your smile, this is no time to stay home and research. It’s time to call us, schedule a dental visit, and come in to discover what’s happening and how to improve it!
