Tooth Sensitivity Causes Gilbert, AZ

There can be a number of reasons why your teeth are sensitive. Some of the most common reasons are as follows:

1. Gum recession due to age or improper brushing.
2. Acidic beverages that cause enamel erosion and dentin exposure.
3. Tooth grinding.
4. Brushing with abrasive toothpaste, brushing incorrectly and/or brushing more than three times a day which could result in enamel loss.
5. Gum disease, which can result in recession.
6. A chipped tooth that exposed dentin.

Some dental treatments can cause sensitivity. Teeth whitening, teeth cleanings, having braces put on or getting a filling placed are some treatments that cause this sensitivity. If you have more questions, please call Power Ranch Dental at (480) 988- 2282. We look forward to hearing from you soon.
