If you are experiencing dental sensitivity, then there’s no reason to hop online to figure out what’s happening, to ask around, or to try to figure it out all on your own. Sure, a little investigative work into your usual habits is a good idea. However, the very first thing you should do to ensure you find out what’s happening and how to make it better? Call us. Set up a visit. We’ll have you taken care of in no time.
Go ahead and begin using sensitivity toothpaste. It won’t work on contact. Instead, it takes a bit of time to begin offering relief. This will help you get back to a smile that’s not full of zinging and discomfort, while you’re getting ready to come in to see us for a visit about your dental sensitivity.
Any type of habit you are performing that could potentially make dental sensitivity worse is something you should avoid. Are you eating ice or other hard food as a snack? Eat soft foods for now. Do extremes in temperature feel uncomfortable? Don’t eat very hot or cold foods. Are you scrubbing your teeth like crazy? Stop and be very gentle from now on.
Remember that we can absolutely help you with dental sensitivity. Just schedule a dental exam with us and we will provide you with the information and care you need.
