Oral Sensitivity and Oral Care Products

Tooth sensitivity is a kind of discomfort/pain in the teeth due to certain stimulations arising out of cold or hot temperatures. Various reasons are the cause of concern for the issue of tooth sensitivity ranging from brushing with too much force, using hard-bristled toothbrush to wrong usage of oral care products contribute to oral sensitivity. Many people who suffer from tooth sensitivity are unaware of why they are in pain. If you want to deal with tooth sensitivity and find a feasible remedy, you'll need this knowledge. Let us have a look at some of the most prevalent tooth sensitivity reasons, as well as what you may do to alleviate it. •

Brushing too vigorously

Tooth enamel can be worn away, by brushing with a hard-bristled toothbrush regularly. Brushing too hard might cause gum recession, exposing the tooth's base and potentially causing sensitivity. Get a soft-bristled toothbrush and change your technique. •

Consumption of high-sugar and acidic diet

Tooth enamel can be eroded by acidic or sugary foods and beverages, such as soda, coffee, tomato sauce, candies, refined carbohydrates, and citrus fruits, making the dentin more vulnerable.
