Why are my teeth sensitive?
Your teeth could be sensitive for a number of different reasons and we are aware that sensitive teeth can be hard and difficult to deal with. You may have some loss of tooth enamel and this could be the cause of your tooth sensitivity. Enamel can be found on the coating of the tooth and is designed to protect the dentine underneath, as it is sensitive. You could find that your enamel has become eroded or worn away over time, and this could lead to issues such as the dentine becoming exposed. Exposed dentine can lead to painful eating experiences due to the increased sensitivity, and you could find that this can be worsened with hot drinks and cold ice cream, as these temperature changes can be extreme. Are you someone who has issues when eating or drinking something extremely hot or cold? If this is the case then you could have sensitive teeth. If you think that you have sensitive teeth then you should seek dental advice. Here at Parbold Dental we could offer you advice on how to treat your sensitive teeth Ormskirk.

The way you brush your teeth could also contribute to the sensitivity of your teeth.
