Tooth sensitivity treatment allows patients to resume normal day to day functions, minus the sensitivity when eating or drinking.
Our dentist will first perform an oral examination, conduct special investigations or take x-rays of your teeth to determine the underlying cause of the sensitivity. Once the underlying cause is determined, treatment may consist of one or more of the following: personal use of desensitising toothpastes, fluoride gel application, fillings, crowning, gum grafting or root canal treatment.
The procedure time is dependent on the treatment plan. Fluoride gel application and fillings are relatively simple and can be completed within a single visit whereas more complex procedures may require multiple visits or even require the attention of a specialist.
The experience may vary depending on the treatment plan. Fluoride gel application is painless and only requires an hour of abstinence from eating and drinking after the procedure. Other treatment may require the use of local anaesthetics and involve tooth preparation.
Recurrence of teeth sensitivity hinges on the management of the underlying cause and chosen treatment. Your dentist will often recommend a conservative treatment approach, supported by an action plan to manage the underlying cause at the start. Example, a person who is experiencing teeth sensitivity due to overzealous brushing may be treated with fluoride gel application and modification of existing brushing technique or frequency. Another example, a person who suffers from excessive enamel wear due to teeth grinding when sleeping may be treated with a combination of crowning and use of a night guard.
Treatment risk is dependent on the chosen treatment. Fluoride gel application and fillings are safe, with little or no risk. The potential risk for complications increases with more advanced treatment options such as gum grafting or root canal treatment although it is still considered to be relatively low.
