How to Deal With Sensitive Teeth After Whitening

That pain you feel after teeth whitening in New Westminster is normal. It’s called dentin hypersensitivity. The stronger the formulation for the teeth whitening in New Westminster, the more likely you are to experience sensitivity.
It will go away in a few days or weeks. Your teeth also go through a recovery phase. But while waiting for the sensitivity to go away, here are the things that you should do:
  1. Avoid hot or cold drinks
Exposing your teeth to extremely hot or cold drinks will just worsen the problem. Your teeth are already hypersensitive right now, so don’t aggravate it even further by exposing them to intense temperatures. Let your hot soups cool down first and opt for room temperature drinks instead.
  1. Avoid eating acidic foods
Stay away from foods that contain a lot of acids such as lemons, oranges, and many other citrus fruits. They tend to soften the dentin and enamel of the teeth, which can make the sensitivity worse.
  1. Use a toothpaste that can help minimize sensitivity
Talk to your dentist at Belmont Dental Centre and get recommendations on the best toothpaste that you can use to minimize teeth sensitivity. There are commercial toothpastes that you can find in the market that promise to help desensitize the teeth. 
 
Avoid using toothpastes that might have small bleaching particles or whitening ingredients. Since you have already undergone a tooth whitening procedure, these toothpastes might just worsen the problem.
Try these tips on how you can deal with teeth sensitivity following your teeth whitening procedure.
