Maybe there is an uncomfortable feeling when you suck in air through your mouth? If you are experiencing these symptoms, you are suffering from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.colgate.com\/en\/us\/oc\/oral-health\/conditions\/tooth-sensitivity\/article\/what-causes-sensitive-teeth-0714\" target=\"_blank\">sensitive teeth<\/a>. Since discomfort does not occur all the time, you may feel like it is not an important issue. However, any sensitivity that occurs is due to an underlying issue, which may be severe. If you notice that your teeth are becoming less tolerate to temperature changes or pressure, you need to see your dentist who treats sensitive teeth in Thousand Oaks. Dr. Gary Chaffee will find the cause of your pain to provide you with the relief you need.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Causes of Tooth Sensitivity<\/h2>\n<p>There are many different reasons that can cause sensitivity to develop. Not to mention, sometimes the issue can be temporary while other times it can continue to progress over time. Finding the underlying cause of the discomfort is key to providing the correct <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smilebeautifully.com\/services.html\">treatment to relieve the pain<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Temporary Discomfort<\/h2>\n<p>Certain dental procedures are known to cause sensitivity to develop, such as a dental filling, crown, or teeth whitening treatment. When the issue is related to a recent dental visit, you will not need any intervention. The changes to your teeth\u2019s tolerance level will subside within a few days after you have recovered.<\/p>\n<h2>Tooth Decay<\/h2>\n<p>Tooth decay is a leading cause for the discomfort. Not only will you feel sensitivity when exposed to different temperatures, but also when you eat or drink something sweet. Most often, this is the first symptom of the development of a cavity; therefore, it is important to seek treatment right away to prevent the decay from progressing. By restoring the tooth\u2019s health, the pain will subside.<\/p>\n<h2>Weakened Enamel<\/h2>\n<p>Weak enamel causes the inner layer of the tooth, known as the dentin, to become more exposed. This is a common cause for tooth sensitivity. There are several treatments and interventions that can be used to stop the pain. We will provide a fluoride varnish, which will help to replenish lost enamel. In addition, we will likely recommend the use of a sensitivity toothpaste or mouthwash, which work to block nerve signals to reduce the occurrence of the discomfort. In as little as two weeks, you will notice an improvement.<\/p>\n<h2>Gum Disease<\/h2>\n<p>When periodontal disease is left untreated, it will eventually cause the gum line to recede. This allows the roots of the teeth to become exposed, leading to sensitivity. To stop the pain and to restore the health of your gums, you will need periodontal therapy. If the tissue has been severely damaged, you may require additional treatments, like soft tissue laser therapy or grafting to rebuild the gum line.<\/p>\n<h2>Stop Living with Sensitive Teeth<\/h2>\n<p>When your teeth are sensitive, it can cause you to avoid your favorite foods as you battle the discomfort. You can stop living with the pain by visiting your dentist in Thousand Oaks. We will find the root cause of the issue to provide you with the relief you need.
