Are you bothered by tooth sensitivity? If so, it’s time to visit your dentist, Dr. Rosendo Garza. Visiting him can help you determine the underlying cause and can also help you find the right treatment that can improve your situation. Oftentimes, your dentist will recommend the following treatments:

–Taking advantage of a professional fluoride treatment: Fluoride is the mineral needed to reverse tooth sensitivity. This is because it strengthens your tooth enamel and blocks the channels that lead to the sensitive layers within the tooth. When you come into our office for your six-month checkup, our team will provide you with the proper fluoride treatment. This will come in the form of a foam, gel, or varnish and it will seep into and strengthen your tooth enamel.

–Using desensitizing and fluoride toothpaste: Luckily, there are types of toothpaste that can help relieve your discomfort, which are desensitizing and fluoride toothpaste. These pastes can regularly strengthen your teeth and protect them from the harmful substances in your mouth. They can also block the channels that lead to the sensitive layers of your teeth. So, feel free to use these pastes on a regular basis if necessary.

–Cutting out acidic foods and beverages: Usually, acidic foods and beverages tend to cause tooth sensitivity. This is because the acid attacks and wears down the enamel, gaining access to the sensitive layers within. So, it’s best to cut these products out of your diet as much as possible.
