I normally use a low-abrasive toothpaste and a very soft toothbrush because of my sensitive teeth.

Would a Sonicare toothbrush be better or worse for this?

Thanks.

Okay so i went to the dentist and they found my first cavity on my front teeth, and they drilled it really thin. So now every time I drink anything, it it touches them it hurts extremely bad! This has been going on since late march and I’m sick of it. Iv used act and it doesn’t really do anything and i use sensitive toothpaste every day. I’m not sure what else to do. Can i get some ideas?

My 5 year old son has sensitive teeth. Eating cold things such as ice cream really seems to bother his teeth. He has healthy, clean, white teeth that are brushed everyday with no other problems except for this sensitivity to cold things. All toothpaste for sensitive teeth are not suggested for children under 12. I am getting him to a dentist next month but was wondering if there is anything he can use until then. Is there a toothpaste for sensitive teeth that is safe for children?

At eleven thirty this morning I had a check up at the dentist, but after they cleaned my teeth, they became super sensitive. Its been twelve hours and my teeth are still hurting more than ever.. So what can I do?
Help!

Before I have my braces, I will have to have one of my adult teeth out! I have sensitive teeth as well. How much – on average – does it hurt? Bare in mind, I will be about 11 or 12 when I have this done….By the way, can you still get knocked out for it? If you can – YYYYYYYAAAAAAAYYYY!
Thanks xx

My teeth are feeling very sensitive lately and the only thing I have been doing regularly is chewing 5 gum. I get my teeth cleaned every 6 mo. and I just went and have no cavities. My teeth are cold and heat sensitive right now.

I have really sensitive teeth. I tried Crest Advanced White Strips and after one use my teeth were incredibly sensitive and painful the next day. I also use the Sensodyne whitening toothpaste and it doesn’t seem to make any difference.

Does anyone have experience with store-bought or dentist office whitening that doesn’t cause pain? I know there are tons of things out on the market and there has to be something that works without triggering sensitivity. Or at least a in-office procedure they can do to help.

Note: i am NOT looking for home remedies!!

I have very, very sensitive teeth. It’s difficult for me to eat even fruit like grapes without pain. Anything cold I have to prepare myself mentally to eat. I use Sensodyne, it helps a little. Is there anything else maybe the dentist could do?

I got my braces off 4 days ago, and my teeth are incredibly sensitive, especially to juice. It hurt so badly when he was polishing them. Is this going to go away?

For one consultation with the dentist, he suggested that I have some teeth filed away for braces. I didn’t like that idea because I think it would cause nerve damage. In the long term, I may have to cope with sensitive teeth. The dentist said that I already have thin enamel probably from drinking acidic foods or brushing too hard. My mom said that she had to cope with sensitive teeth for the rest of her life because of filing. I’m a bit skeptical of this idea and not sure, any suggestions?

I just got a crown on one of my teeth, and it’s extremely sensitive to cold now. My doctor recommended a special toothpaste for sensitive teeth but it contains glycerin, which I don’t use as it coats the tooth and prevents re-enamelization (I currently brush my teeth with soap – feel free to argue with me about this, but don’t forget that the question is only if such a toothpaste *exists*, not if it’s good or bad.

I’d like to find as natural a remedy as possible for the cold sensitivity.

Lately my teeth have been really sensitive to hot and cold foods. How can I fix this problem?

My mom has sensitive teeth and shes been eating oatmeal but she wants something else and wants too go out for dinner give me some ideas !?

I just got my braces off last week and since then my teeth have been super sensitive. I can’t enjoy popsicles or cold drinks like I used to. Is there a good toothpaste to reduce my sensitivity??

I have sensitive teeth and therefore can only use a toothpaste specifically for sensitivity, however, all the toothpastes I’ve tried (sensodyne, colgate for sensitive teeth, etc) leave redness around my lips after I brush my teeth – even though it goes away in several minutes, it leaves a burning sensation and sort of bleaches my skin, so I’m assuming I’m allergic to this type of toothpaste. I don’t get any reaction when using a regular toothpaste, but then I don’t get the benefits tootpaste for sensitive teeth provides. I’m not sure what to do and would appreciate some advice.

I’ve had braces since July. Just recently, my teeth started to hurt whenever I are or drank something even remotely cold. It’s almost like a brief toothache type pain. I’ve never had sensitive teeth before, but my mom does. The cold things at the dentist don’t bother me. I’m not sure why all of a sudden this is happening to me.

I have very sensitive teeth, i guess because the other night it hurt so bad and wouldnt go away, i had to take an iburprofen, but then i felt fine. Is there something else i can do to help this?
Yes, i bought Sensodyne the other night that i had such a problem and i used it 2 times so far. I do have a few pin hole cavites on the painful side, could that have anything to do with it?

And I already have sensitive teeth to begin with.

I’ve always have slightly yellowish teeth since i can remember and i had tried colgate whitening toothpaste but maybe i’m sensitive to it or something because everytime i use it, it causes scratches in my gums and lips and extremely sensitive teeth. well, ignoring that i persisted in using the whitening toothpaste for a month and its still the same color. i’m afraid to use the whitening strips because of the side effects that it may cause and i heard bleaching is really bad too. so is there another method or some other brand of toothpaste that can be recommended? thanks

Every time I gargle with warm water or eat something cold I feel sensitive pain around my teeth.I don’t have Sensordyne toothpaste in reach right now,but I would like to try a home remedy for now until I get Sensordyne toothpaste.

Hi,

Yesterday I had a lollypop, one of those sour ones with bubblegum in the middle. Since then, my 2 front teeth are really sensitive and it sucks. I have to go to the dentist in 2 days and I really hate it when she has to work on my mouth. I can tell you that I’m not a frequent teethbrusher, I often forget or I am too lazy, now does this mean she has to work on my teeth or will she just prescribe something?

I have extremely sensitive teeth on one side. It hurts to get anything on them, air, heat, cold, any food, etc. What treatment might the dentist give me?

I have often read that people with sensitive teeth shouldnt use crest whitestrips. I would really like to use them but I dont know if my teeth will be okay with them. Oh also, how old do I have to be to be able to use crest whitestrips?

My father is looking for a mouthwash/rinse that will dull the pain of sensitive teeth/gums. Anyone have any ideas?

I use them once in a while, not every day like it says because my teeth hurt a lot after. I use sensitive toothpaste after I use them, but that does not work. What can I do?
