Ouch! Are Your Teeth Sensitive?

Are Your Teeth Sensitive In Trinity?

For those of you in the St. Petersburg area who feel pain when you sip your morning coffee or who cringe each time you brush or floss, Prestige Dentistry is here for you.

The first line of defense against tooth sensitivity is proper oral hygiene. Incorrect brushing and over-brushing can result in receding gums, which leads to the exposure of microscopic tubules in the dentin. When these tubules are exposed, acidic, hot, cold, and sticky foods can then reach the nerve cells in the teeth causing discomfort.

Here in our Trinity area dentistry practice, our dedicated staff can determine if your brushing style is contributing to your tooth sensitivity dilemmas and get you on your way to proper oral care habits.

Jason Horwitz usually recommends an over-the-counter desensitizing toothpaste that lessens tooth pain after several applications. Most St. Petersburg area drugstores carry it. However, some Trinity patients may need in-office procedures such as fluoride gel treatments available at Prestige Dentistry.

Don’t worry if you have sensitive teeth in Trinity and want to have your teeth whitened. Here at Prestige Dentistry, Dr. Horwitz can determine which professional tooth whitening or at-home whitening procedures will work for you.

Call our experienced dental office today and schedule an appointment for rapid relief for your sensitive teeth.
