SENSITIVITY

1. Bring on the desensitizing toothpaste
2. Try a fluoride rinse
3. Keep your teeth clean
4.  Use a soft toothbrush
5.  Say, "Enough!" to snuff. Chewing tobacco, also known as "dip" or "snuff," is a popular habit in some groups, especially among many male teenagers. They mistakenly believe it's less harmful than smoking cigarettes. However, in addition to causing mouth cancers, chewing tobacco causes the gums to recede, a major cause of gum sensitivity and decay. Just as there is no safe cigarette, there is no safe tobacco.
6.  Avoid aerated acidic drinks

At FDOC , we have a panel of expert dentists who are specialized in finding out the right cause of your teeth sensitivity by thoroughly checking your teeth & by knowing your eating and oral habits. Our dentist will advise you for a DENTAL X-RAY (IOPA) as a part of the investigation procedure. Following which we may recommend you any of the following procedures:

1. Covering exposed root surfaces. If receding gums are the cause of your sensitive teeth, your dentist might apply a sealant to cover the exposed tooth roots. Our periodontist might suggest you different root coverage procedures, if required.
2. Root canal. If your sensitive teeth cause severe pain and other treatments aren't effective, our dentist might recommend a root canal — a procedure used to treat problems in the tooth's soft core (dental pulp).

We not only make you aware of how to prevent teeth sensitivity by making simple changes in your oral habits but also advise right treatment if needed to eliminate tooth sensitivity.
