Winter is here and so is Dental Sensitivity!

Are your teeth feeling the winter chill and sensitivity?

Although Queensland’s winters aren’t as bad compared to most places, even slightly cooler weather can sometimes highlight the fact that there might be something wring with your teeth. Simply breathing in colder air can trigger sensitivity for some people.

Dental sensitivity can be felt for many reasons, such as:

– Gum recession, exposing enamel
– Tooth decay
– Teeth grinding or clenching
– Acid wear from acidic foods and drinks
– Plaque and calculus build up
– Gum disease

Some of these conditions could simply be fixed by a professional clean and others may require more extensive dental treatment.

If any of these symptoms apply to you, it might be time for your next dental checkup. It’s always best to catch things early before they lead to a toothache.
