Sensitive Teeth

If you wince with pain after sipping a cold drink, chances are that you suffer from "dentin hypersensitivity", or more commonly, sensitive teeth.

At least 45 million adults in the United States suffer at some time from sensitive teeth. It is one of the most difficult problems to treat. However, depending on the cause of the sensitivity we have a few new products.
MI Paste is a great tasting paste used after brushing. It helps to reduce sensitivity and rebuilds the enamel with a natural milk based product.
Other patients have success with 'sensitive' toothpastes, for example, Sensodyne. These 'sensitive' toothpastes have extra fluoride in them. It is the fluoride that fills the openings that are allowing the cold sensation into the middle of the tooth.
