If that&#8217;s the case, you&#8217;re not alone. While pain from hot or cold foods may indicate a cavity, it is also common in people who have sensitive teeth.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Tooth sensitivity, also known as &#8220;dentin hypersensitivity,&#8221; is the sensation of pain or discomfort in the teeth due to certain stimuli, such as hot or cold temperatures. Issues can be both short-term or long-term, and it does affect one or more teeth. Various factors can cause it, but most cases of sensitive teeth are easily treated with a change in oral hygiene.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">An enamel layer acts as the protection or the crowns of your teeth\u2014the part above the gum line\u2014in healthy teeth. A layer called the cementum helps protect tooth roots beneath the gum line. Dentin lies beneath both the enamel and the cementum, and Dentin has microscopic tubules and is less dense than enamel and cementum. When the protective covering of enamel or cementum on dentin wears away, these tubules allow heat and cold, acidic, or sticky foods to reach the nerves and cells inside the tooth. When the gums recede, the dentin may be exposed. As a result, hypersensitivity may develop.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p aria-level=\"2\"><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Symptoms of Sensitive Teeth<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:40,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">People who have sensitive teeth may feel pain or discomfort in response to specific triggers.

The enamel is the tooth&#8217;s outer layer that protects it.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Tooth decay, broken teeth, chipped teeth, and worn-out fillings or crowns can expose the tooth&#8217;s dentin, resulting in insensitivity. If this is the case, you will most likely only feel sensitivity in one tooth or region of the mouth rather than the majority of teeth. Following dental work such as crowns, or teeth bleaching, your teeth may be temporarily sensitive. Sensitivity is usually limited to one tooth or the teeth surrounding the tooth that received dental work in this case.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Talk to your dentist about finding a solution if your tooth sensitivity makes it difficult to eat. There are many over-the-counter kinds of toothpaste and mouthwashes designed for sensitive teeth.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Consult your dentist about prescription toothpaste and mouthwash if these do not work. You should also schedule an appointment with your dentist if you have symptoms of cavities or potential root damage so that you can receive treatment as soon as possible and avoid complications.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p aria-level=\"3\"><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Top Teeth Sensitivity Treatment<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:40,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Using Desensitized Toothpaste<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Desensitizing toothpaste contains ingredients that protect nerve endings from irritants. Potassium nitrate, a compound that blocks pain signals traveling from a nerve in your tooth to your brain, is the most active ingredient. Your sensitivity will decrease after a few uses. Dentists also recommend using a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride or low-acid mouthwash.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Rinsing with Salt Water<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Salt is an antiseptic that can also help reduce inflammation.

If you use a toothbrush with stiff bristles, you may be exacerbating your condition. Stiff bristles and abrasive toothpaste damage enamel, causing more microscopic holes and, eventually, increased sensitivity. They can also deepen gum recession, exposing dentin and causing sensitive nerves. To preserve the surface of your teeth and the integrity of your gums, use a soft-bristled toothbrush and brush gently.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Turmeric<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Turmeric is helpful as an anti-inflammatory treatment in addition to cooking.

Make a topical paste with 1 tsp turmeric, 12 tsp salt, and 12 tsp mustard oil as an alternative. Apply this paste to your teeth and gums twice a day for pain relief.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Checking Gums regularly with the dentist<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Gum disease or receding gums can be a significant cause of tooth sensitivity. The teeth with no enamel (below the gum line) become exposed as the gum tissue breaks down and moves away from the tooth surface. This act leaves nerves vulnerable and can cause significant discomfort. Visit your dentist occasionally to examine your gums and ensure you don\u2019t have gum disease that needs to be treated. Healthy gums help in protecting teeth along with preventing tooth sensitivity.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Relieve pain using Clove<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Cloves and clove oil are analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and germicidal. This means they can reduce inflammation, bacterial overgrowth, and pain. When swished in the mouth as an extract, Clove can have a numbing effect that relieves tooth sensitivity. Clove oil&#8217;s analgesic properties can be enhanced further by combining it with orange essential oil. These essential oils are highly concentrated and should only be used in small amounts in a carrier oil such as coconut or avocado oil.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Conclusion<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">No one has to live with sensitive teeth for long.
