Teeth Sensitivity – Part 3<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Dental Sensitivity might be caused by several variables. They include but are not limited to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Over-brushing or forceful brushing<\/strong> \u2013 In the event that you are too forceful with your brushing, along with a side-to side approach or having too tough a toothbrush, the enamel may be trimmed and the part surrounding the gum-line is most often impacted.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Periodontal recession\/gum disease<\/strong> \u2013 This can develop naturally with time, by which the gums shrink subjecting root dentin that is not guarded by enamel.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Poor dental hygiene<\/strong> \u2013 This can result in tooth cavities, and\/or plaque as well as tartar build-up, resulting in gum recession.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Grinding \u2013 This might also result in \u2018aching\u2019 teeth, due to steady pressure on them. Much like erosion, frequent teeth grinding (also called bruxism) could wear away the enamel by physically grinding it away.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Medical issues<\/strong> \u2013 Bulimia and acid reflux (GERD<\/a>) may cause acid to collect within the mouth and wear down enamel for example, causing sensitive teeth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Acidic food<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 Food with high acid content, such as citrus fruits, tomatoes, pickles and tea, could induce enamel erosion with regular intake.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. Teeth whitening<\/strong> \u2013 Sensitivity is among the frequent adverse effects of whitening. This commonly clears up not long after the whitening has concluded. In some cases it means holding up the whitening process or being proactive with other precautionary measures before you whiten.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  8. Bad habits<\/strong> \u2013 Utilizing teeth as tools or gnawing on things (e.g., pens) may wear away tooth enamel as well.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
