Suggest remedy for oversensitivity
Patient: Hello Took me many eyars to go bakc to the dentist. I did 3 years ago w/sedation. Had a deep cleaning and a tooth pulled. My teeth hurt, but I expected that because it was under the gum work and so on. Since then I have gone back every 6 months for a cleaning. I still have terrible pain in my guns and teeth for days, sometimes a week. I can t get releif. My dentist thinks I am exagerrating. I am supposed to go next week but now.........I just can t go through that again. What is wrong? If I am oversenstive, what can I do? Doctor: HiThanks for writing in.Due to deep cleaning you might have been experiencing pain & it will subside with in few days.You just need to take few measures:--use desensitizing tooth paste containing strontium chloride-do gum massage by gum tone gel twice a day-maintain proper oral hygiene by regular brushing & flossing.Visit your dentist if problem persists.RegardsDr. Neha Sumra
