Sharp discomfort when eating ice cream or sipping hot coffee can be a sign of tooth sensitivity. It often happens when enamel wears down or gums pull back, leaving the inner part of the tooth more exposed.

Using toothpaste made for sensitive teeth and brushing gently can often help reduce the discomfort. 🦷

Your toothbrush works hard every day, but it won't last forever. Most people should replace their toothbrush every 3 to 4 months. 🪥

Over time, bristles become frayed and less effective at removing plaque, and worn bristles can’t clean along the gumline the way they should. Old toothbrushes can also collect bacteria, especially after illness.

Your bite can change over time, even if you’ve never had braces. Daily wear, teeth shifting, and natural jaw changes can slowly affect how your upper and lower teeth fit together.

Grinding, missing teeth, and aging can all play a role. Small changes may not seem like a big deal, but they can lead to uneven wear or discomfort if ignored.

Acidic drinks like soda, energy drinks, and citrus beverages can wear down enamel. When enamel softens, teeth can become sensitive and more prone to stains and cavities.

Sipping often makes it worse. Try using a straw, rinse with water after, and wait before brushing to help protect your smile.

Do you reach for soda, sports drinks, or citrus water during the day? Tell us your go to drink in the comments!
