Luckily, this is very treatable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What causes a tooth or teeth to become sensitive? Well,\nthere are a variety of answers here. As we age, so do our teeth. With age the\nenamel on your teeth can wear, leaving your tooth roots exposed. This, of\ncourse, can cause those jolting pains with tempered food and drink, even when\ncold air hits the tooth. This is the most likely case or why you\u2019re\nexperiencing the tooth pain. But there can be other reasons, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.smilesbygeorge.com\/hygiene.html\">Overbrushing<\/a><\/li><li>Cracked or chipped teeth<\/li><li>Teeth grinding<\/li><li>Gum disease<\/li><li>Tooth whitening<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Your dental professional has a solution for all of the above\nconditions. Depending on the cause and severity of your sensitivity, you will\nbenefit from professional treatment. There are a variety of treatments from\nsimple solutions to oral surgery. Sensitive teeth solutions include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Desensitizing toothpaste<\/li><li>Desensitizing or bonding<\/li><li>Surgical gum graft<\/li><li>Root canal<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>See your dentist at the first sign of sensitivity.\u00a0But worry not, oftentimes the early stages can be easily treated.\u00a0If you wait to get treatment, you often end up with a bigger problem that is more difficult to treat. Many times, sensitive teeth can be treated with a good cleaning and use of a special toothpaste. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Visit Dr. Kirtley today and schedule an appointment to maintain a healthy smile.&nbsp; Call 317-841-1111 or&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.smilesbygeorge.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.smilesbygeorge.com<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dr. George Kirtley proudly serves Indianapolis and all surrounding areas.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you\u2019ve been experiencing jarring sharp pain when you eat or drink hot or even cold foods, or even surprisingly during your oral care routine.
