How to Help Tooth Sensitivity from Gum Recession
Are you dealing with sharp pain from tooth recession? Try switching to Sensodyne toothpaste. Remember to spit and don’t rinse, and patience is key with Sensodyne. You wanna wait about three weeks for it to take full effect. If you have one specific spot that’s just killing you, what you can do is put some on your finger and then rub it on that spot, before bed, and just leave it on overnight. Now, if Sensodyne isn’t cutting it for you, we can level up to a prescription toothpaste. And if you want more instant relief, ask us about an in-office desensitizing treatment. However, if the recession is more advanced, we may refer you out for gum grafting.
