Sipping on the side of your mouth, or waiting for tea to cool? Robertson residents with sensitivity across several teeth can have the underlying causes looked at together.
Let's find a time
One touchy tooth is usually a small puzzle. Sensitivity that seems to travel around your mouth is different, because several causes may be overlapping. Lost tooth structure can be one of them, and decay, cracks, ageing restorations and gum concerns can each play a part as well.
Most people with sensitive teeth do not need a reconstruction. It becomes a topic only when an examination shows that damage or disease affects much of the mouth. Robertson is in Winnipeg, and residents who want those answers are seen at our McPhillips Street clinic.

Records look at what lies behind the twinges, from worn surfaces to roots and supporting tissue.
Should a tooth turn out to be infected, relieving that problem normally comes ahead of longer-range work.
Which foods you now avoid gives useful clues about where the trouble is and what it is doing to your days.
A sensitive tooth can have several explanations, and two neighbouring teeth may not share one. An assessment is how the possibilities get narrowed down.
When tooth height or structure has been lost, sensitivity may be one of the results, and that loss can affect how your bite comes together too.
Supporting tissues are also part of the question, and final restorations need a healthy, maintainable foundation beneath them.
Not all of these will apply to you, and a simpler answer may turn up. Treatment options depend on what the examination actually finds.
When many teeth are involved, the goal is to understand the whole picture before treating any part of it for the long term. A typical path could run like this.
Request your visitCold, heat, sweets, chewing or brushing can each point somewhere different, so tell us what sets things off.
Your teeth, roots, gums and bite are reviewed, with imaging or other records chosen according to your case.
Infection, pain and teeth at immediate risk come first, followed by controlling decay and gum disease.
If restorations are part of your plan, they are completed in stages once that foundation has been dealt with.
Sensitivity can be surprisingly hard to describe once you are sitting in the chair. A few simple observations collected beforehand may make your explanation far easier.
Mention any toothpaste or rinse you have been trying for sensitivity, including how much it seemed to help. There is no need to buy anything new first.

Examining sensitive teeth can feel worrying when you already expect them to hurt. Letting us know where you are tender gives everyone a chance to talk through comfort before anything starts.
Show which areas feel most reactive so they can be approached with that knowledge in mind.
Knowing why a tooth is being checked can make a brief moment of discomfort easier to accept.
If something feels sharper than you expected, let the person treating you know right away.
Once things have settled
Restored or not, teeth keep meeting daily forces and foods. Staying on top of cleaning and reviews gives you a way to raise any new sensitivity while it is still small.
A change in what bothers you is worth mentioning, even when it seems minor or comes and goes.
Where wear has been a factor, ask whether a night guard makes sense for what remains and what was rebuilt.
A hygienist can suggest home tools that reach around restorations and any tender gumline areas.
Pain that lingers, or swelling, deserves a call to the clinic and should not wait for your next review.

Helpful details about full-mouth reconstruction in Robertson.
Ask our teamSometimes, and sometimes not. Sensitivity has many possible causes, ranging from minor to more involved. An examination is the way to learn which applies, so try not to assume the worst beforehand.
Loss of tooth structure, gum concerns or a bite that concentrates force can involve more than one tooth. Separate problems can also happen to overlap, which is why they are reviewed together.
That cannot be promised ahead of time, and crowns may not be the right answer. The dentist needs to identify the cause before recommending anything, then explain what a given option is expected to do.
Tell us what you are using and how it has been working. Whatever it does for the feeling, the cause is still worth having assessed, and a call to the clinic is wise if pain is growing.
It could, if a tooth has treatable inflammation or infection on the inside. Testing and records help show whether that fits your situation, and many sensitive teeth have other explanations.
