How to care for sensitive teeth?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
First and foremost visit a dentist for a full exam. A cleaning and professional exam can help detect any deeper issues which could be causing your sensitivity or any other oral health concerns. Your dentist may recommend fluoride treatments to help protect and rebuild your enamel. They may also recommend alcohol- free mouthwash and a toothpaste specialized for sensitive teeth. Specialized products often have desensitizing ingredients to help block discomfort and limited irritating ingredients.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
