Problem of tooth sensitivity

Problem of tooth sensitivity

How to deal with this problem? There are several ways. First, you must definitely give up products containing too much acid – for example, lemons and other citrus fruits, apples. Do not consume such carbonated drinks as lemonade, Coca-Cola, juices, and even mineral water. The acid contained in them erodes the tooth enamel, and pain appears. At the same time, be sure to undergo an examination, which will be provided by dentists at dental clinics.

The next thing to do is change your toothbrush and toothpaste. It is important that the brush has soft bristles and a small head. Such brushes usually have the designation soft, which means 'soft'. And choose a special therapeutic toothpaste, which your attending physician can recommend.

Dentists also recommend using individual mouthguards with toothpaste. They are made by all dental clinics and polyclinics in St. Petersburg. One visit to the doctor is enough. And when you encounter a similar problem in the future, you can independently fill the mouthguards with toothpaste and continue treatment without consulting a doctor.

Inexpensive dental clinics also provide assistance with tooth sensitivity. There they may prescribe a course of electrophoresis. During this procedure, calcium ions settle on the surface of the teeth, strengthening them and making the enamel denser, and consequently, less sensitive. Also, do not forget that for the prevention of oral diseases, you must undergo regular checkups with a dentist.
