🦷 Why Are Your Teeth So Sensitive?
If sipping something cold (or hot!) makes you wince, you’re not alone. Here are 5 common reasons your teeth might be feeling extra sensitive:
1️⃣ Gum recession – When gums pull back, the root becomes exposed and extra reactive.
2️⃣ Enamel erosion – Acidic foods/drinks + time = thinner enamel and more sensitivity.
3️⃣ Clenching & grinding – This wears down enamel and stresses the nerves.
4️⃣ Brushing too hard + too much toothpaste – Yes, too much can irritate your teeth and gums.
5️⃣ Whitening toothpaste – Many contain abrasive ingredients that increase sensitivity.
✨ Sensitivity isn’t “normal”—and you don’t have to just deal with it.
A quick visit can help pinpoint the cause and get you relief.
