Tooth sensitivity is a common dental problem where one experiences pain or discomfort in their teeth when exposed to certain stimuli such as hot or cold temperatures, sweet or acidic foods, etc. It is due to the loss of enamel in the teeth (because of which the sensitive layer of dentin gets exposed).
Many factors can lead to teeth sensitivity, including:
Brushing too hard leads to the wearing of enamel
Tooth decay can expose dentin and lead to sensitivity
Gum recession exposes roots of teeth
Dental erosion - Acidic foods and drinks may erode the enamel
Grinding of teeth - Habitual grinding or clenching can wear down the enamel
Finding the root cause and treating it correctly is very important in the management of sensitivity. At Kamala Dental, we offer all types of solution to put an end to your sensitivity.
