Instant Sensitivity Treatment
At Sparsh Dental Clinic, the goal of treating sensitive teeth is to identify and treat the root cause of the problem. The dentist will perform a thorough examination to identify factors contributing to sensitivity, such as receding gums, tooth enamel wear, or cavities.
Once the underlying cause is identified, the treatment plan may include:
Desensitizers:
The dentist may apply fluoride varnishes or special gels to block nerve endings in the teeth, providing immediate relief.
Dental sealants:
If tooth enamel is eroded, sealants may be applied to protect exposed areas and reduce sensitivity.
Bonding agents:
In cases of more severe sensitivity, the dentist may use bonding agents to cover sensitive tooth surfaces.
Individual oral care recommendations:
Patients are often advised to use toothpaste for sensitive teeth and practice good oral hygiene to maintain their dental health.
Dietary advice:
Your dentist may recommend avoiding acidic foods and drinks, which can make sensitivity worse.
This comprehensive approach ensures that treatment not only relieves discomfort, but also helps prevent future sensitivity problems by treating the underlying causes.
