Teeth that feel sore when exposed to cold, sour or sweet is usually because the enamel is thinning, or the gums are receding, exposing the dentin.Oral painkillers only relieve the pain for a while and do not address the cause.At German Dental Clinic, doctors find the right cause and then create a treatment plan for each person.You get a clear explanation before doing it, you don’t have to try the tips yourself on the internet.

Sensitivity is a signal, not a disease

Each when exposed to hot, cold, sour, or sweet occurs when the enamel thins or the gums recede, exposing the dentinal tubules.There are no special treatment pills.Fluoride gel, varnish, and potassium nitrate cream block the dentinal tubules locally more effectively than long-term oral paracetamol.

Crying a tooth suggests decay, cracking, or an open restoration.Pain in the entire jaw suggests enamel erosion, diffuse gum recession, or grinding.Night pain, spontaneous pain is medullary – need to be examined, do not increase the analgesic dose.
