Tooth Sensitivity

Tooth sensitivity is a common name for dentin hypersensitivity or root sensitivity. It is a very common condition that affects almost half of the population. Dentin is one of the four major components of teeth that surrounds the pulp and connects to the dental pulp. When dentin is exposed as a cause of periodontal disease or receded gums, this can cause pain, making it difficult to consume hot and cold beverages. Fortunately, Dr. Farid Hakimzadeh of Fresh Meadows Dental Care has solutions to stop the sensitivity.


Sensitive teeth can be caused by a variety of factors such as poor diet, poor oral hygiene habits, or possibly, a more serious problem. If you don’t have an adequate oral hygiene routine, gingivitis may develop and periodontal disease at any stage can cause tooth sensitivity. If you have sensitive teeth, don’t ignore the problem, schedule a consultation with Dr. Hakimzadeh to rule out serious dental conditions.
