Your teeth may be suffering from sensitivity.<\/p>\n<p>You don\u2019t have to put up with dental pain. Let\u2019s explore tooth sensitivity and how you may have got there. This way, your dentist in Manchester can help you relieve your discomfort.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h1>Why Patients Have Sensitivity Teeth<\/h1>\n<h2>1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 You may brush your teeth too roughly.<\/h2>\n<p>Brushing with too much force or using a hard-bristled toothbrush can cause tooth sensitivity. Over time, you can wear down the enamel of teeth and expose your nerve endings. Try using a softer toothbrush or switching up your routine for better dental hygiene in Manchester.<\/p>\n<h2>2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The substances you eat and drink may be too acidic.<\/h2>\n<p>The enamel of your teeth is the protective layer of your teeth. Unfortunately, the enamel can become worn down by acidic foods and drinks. Try avoiding foods like tomato sauce, lemon, grapefruit, kiwi, and pickles can cause pain. Or, drinking sodas, wine, and other acidic drinks like energy drinks can contribute to tooth sensitivity.<\/p>\n<h2>3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 You may suffer from bruxism.<\/h2>\n<p>Even though tooth enamel is the strongest substance in your body, grinding your teeth can also wear that protective layer down. Consider getting a custom mouthguard to avoid grinding your teeth.<\/p>\n<h2>4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 You may whiten your teeth too often.<\/h2>\n<p>Some people may be more sensitive to the chemicals found in whitening products. If your toothpaste or whitening strips contain strong chemicals, consider switching to one that doesn\u2019t. Or, visit a dentist for professional teeth whitening rather than bleaching at home.<\/p>\n<h2>5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 You may swish too much mouthwash.<\/h2>\n<p>There are some over-the-counter mouthwashes and rinses contain alcohol and other chemicals that can wear on your tooth enamel. Instead, try neutral fluoride rinses. Ask your dentist about more information about the type of mouthwash that may be best for you.<\/p>\n<h2>6.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Gum disease may cause tooth sensitivity.<\/h2>\n<p>Receding gums that come with age and advancing gum disease. If gum disease or gingivitis is the problem, your dentist will come up with a plan to treat the underlying disease. Your dentist can also suggest a procedure to seal your tooth roots from being exposed.<\/p>\n<h2>7.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 There may be too much dental plaque on your teeth.<\/h2>\n<p>Excessive plaque buildup and tartar can cause tooth enamel to wear away. Again, your teeth can become more sensitive as they lose your tooth enamel.<\/p>\n<h2>8.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Previous dental work can cause sensitivity.<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s common to experience some sensitivity after a root canal, an extraction, or other dental work can cause teeth sensitivity. If symptoms don\u2019t disappear after a brief time, you need to schedule another appointment to visit the dentist.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t fret if your teeth cause you discomfort.
