Two teeth on my upper right side are very sensitive to cold + sometimes chewing (I no longer chew on this side?


Question: Dentist sent me to the endodontist for a root canal. Endo doesn't think a root canal is warranted and suggests a crown as a first step w/root canal later if that doesn't work. Dentist thinks this is only delaying solution. Extreme sensitivity to cold when I eat or drink, not always obvious at the dentist/endo office. Not always abundantly clear which tooth is worse. The 2 candidates are not touching.Tried Prevident for 3 months-no help. What to do?
Answers: If your teeth tingle or ache when you eat or drink something cold, hot, sweet or acidic, you probably have sensitive teeth.
Sensitive teeth pain occurs when exposed sensory nerves in the tooth react to various stimuli.
Sensitive teeth can hurt as a reaction to:
*Cold foods or beverages
*Hot foods or beverages
*Sweet or sour (acidic) foods
*Overly aggressive brushing causing tooth abrasion
*Receding gums
*Plaque and bacteria
*Gingivitis
*Periodontal disease
*Cosmetic whitening/bleaching
*Teeth clenching or grinding
*Dry mouth
*Cracked or chipped teeth
Try sensodyne toothpaste and get a second opinion!
Get another opinion on this since your dentist and the endo don't agree on how to treat this. In the mean time use sensodyne toothpaste.
I would get another opinion from a general dentist. Maybe your tooth is cracked and a crown would be better. Who knows. I know cracks are hard to see on xrays. I have a couple of cracked teeth (from chewing ice) and they get extremely sensitive to cold sometimes. And it hurts when I chew sometimes too. Good luck.
I'm a sporean.Actually i'm involved in a biz and is distributing toothpaste. The name of this toothpaste is CALCIUM WHITENING and is frm Japan. It has many benefits.Most importanly, it does nt contain tricolsan, a chemical which is found in toothpaste like darlie,colgate,other toothpaste tt they sell in the market. When tis chemical reacts with chlorine found in tap water, it will produce a cancer causing agent that will risk yr health. then, at the same time, removes plaque,kills bad breath, prevent gum diseases, whiten the teeth and it has a rare alkaline base of ph7.8 and above. the original price of tis toothpaste is $30 but now i'm selling it for $19. it is worth the price coz of its benefits and we have the sole distributorship in the whole of southeast asia so u can only find tis toothpaste in our company.
So, since u r finding a way to cure yr sensitive teeth, why not give it try? i really want to benefit my consumer nt to harm my consumers. For further equiries or if u r interested in tis toothpaste or any health related products, pls call/msg mi @81611950 or add/email me @ evangeline_liew@hotmail.com.
i really hope to hear from u soon.
thx=)
