If you've started wincing when you sip iced water or bite into kulfi, your teeth are telling you something. Sensitivity is rarely just about thin enamel. Common causes we see at the Maidan Garhi clinic: Receding gums exposing the root surface, which has no enamel and reacts to temperature directly. Tiny cracks in molars from grinding or chewing hard food (chikki and bones are usual suspects). Old fillings with leaky margins letting fluid reach the nerve. Aggressive brushing wearing down enamel at the gum line. Recent whitening or scaling, which usually settles in a week or two. The fix depends on the cause. A desensitising toothpaste helps with mild cases. A protective coating on exposed roots handles moderate ones. A crack or leaky filling needs proper repair. Grinding needs a night guard. If you've been switching toothpastes for months hoping the right brand will solve it, please come in. We can usually pinpoint the cause in one visit. #SensitiveTeeth #ToothSensitivity #DentalCare #ChhatarpurDental #DentistInDelhi
