SAY GOODBYE TO SENSITIVITY

SAY GOODBYE TO SENSITIVITY



One of the most common dental complaints stems from pain caused by sensitive teeth. And receding gums is one of the major causes of tooth sensitivity. Gum recession means the roots of the teeth are exposed to the elements, where the pain receptors (nerves) are located. Sensitive teeth can be so painful that proper brushing and flossing can be compromised, which can lead to other issues like plaque buildup and gum disease.


What causes tooth sensitivity?
  • Hot or cold beverages or foods


  • Sweet, sour or acidic foods


  • Aggressive tooth brushing


  • Receding gums


  • Plaque and bacteria


  • Gum disease


  • Teeth clenching or grinding


  • Dry mouth


  • Chipped or broken teeth


  • Teeth whitening

Fortunately, you don't have to live with the pain and discomfort of sensitive teeth. Fluoridex Daily Defense toothpaste is a prescription-strength formula made specifically for sensitivity. The 1.1% neutral sodium fluoride physically seals off pain receptors from the root surfaces, while the 5% potassium nitrate chemically relieves the sensitivity. Fluoridex toothpaste offers 5 times the fluoride of conventional toothpastes for added decay protection too. And Fluoridex is safe to use in place of your regular toothpaste, indefinitely.

So, say goodbye to sensitivity and hello to a beautiful, pain-free smile by trying the Fluoridex toothpaste for yourself to experience the difference. You have nothing to lose but sensitive teeth! Ask our office about tooth sensitivity and Fluoridex toothpaste at your next dental appointment, or feel free to call us at (713) 668-2289 with any questions you may have.
