Managing Tooth Sensitivity During Cold Winter Months

Why Winter Can Trigger Sensitivity

Many patients notice increased tooth sensitivity during colder months. At Marinaside Dental, we often see this caused by enamel wear, gum recession, or exposed tooth roots reacting to cold air and beverages.

Common Causes of Sensitivity

  • Thinning enamel
  • Gum recession
  • Teeth grinding
  • Cracked or worn teeth

Ways to Reduce Sensitivity

Using desensitizing toothpaste, avoiding extremely hot or cold foods, and maintaining gentle brushing techniques can help. Our Yaletown dentist may also recommend fluoride treatments or protective solutions.

When to Seek Professional Help

If sensitivity persists or worsens, it may indicate an underlying issue that needs treatment.
