A patient at the dentist always thought brushing his teeth was enough, and didn’t see the importance of flossing. One day, he had a severe toothache. He went to the dentist, and the dentist told him, that his toothache was due to plaque and decaying food between his teeth. The dentist warned him that if he didn’t take better care of his teeth, he could have cavities and other health difficulties.
7 As millions worldwide know, sensitive teeth make life “a nightmare.” Sensitive teeth come with discomfort, making eating or drinking a painful experience.
Typically, this condition presents toothache after drinking cold liquid, eating hot food, or breathing cold air. If the pain is severe, you should immediately see your dentist, as the nerve in your teeth could be exposed. As the gums are a protective blanket, they cover and protect the roots of the teeth. When the gums recede and recede, the roots have no protection and will therefore be exposed.
Those who brush their teeth daily prevent this kind of thing from happening. The goal is to stop tooth sensitivity and keep gums healthy.
Tubes of toothpaste on the market contain potassium nitrate, which helps reduce pain and discomfort associated with sensitivity.
8 Mouthwash also helps tooth sensitivity, as long as it contains fluoride. You can also ask your dentist which mouthwash he recommends, as there are several choices.
9 If you start using fluoride toothpaste and mouthwash, you will notice improvements in your teeth and gums. Sensitivity will begin to subside, with almost immediate relief.
10 Some wonder: “If I don’t brush my teeth, can I lose them?” The answer is yes, not brushing your teeth causes cavities and eventually the end of the teeth, which lose their color (they are not as strong and white as before) and begin to move in the gums and fall out.
