Thandi chai, ice cream, ya thanda paani pe “jhatka” lagta hai? Teeth sensitivity usually tab hoti hai jab enamel weaken ho jaata hai ya gums thode recede ho jaate hain, jis se tooth ka sensitive layer (dentin) expose hota hai. Ye problem common hai, par sahi approach se control ho sakti hai.
Sabse pehle, apna toothpaste check karo. Whitening toothpastes ya harsh abrasives sensitivity badha sakte hain. Aapko chahiye desensitizing toothpaste (potassium nitrate/strontium based). Isse 2–3 weeks regular use me noticeable relief milta hai. Brush softly—hard brushing se enamel aur gum dono damage hote hain.
Agar aap lemon/pickles/soft drinks zyada lete ho, to acidic exposure enamel ko thin karta hai. Acidic cheez ke turant baad brush mat karo—30 minutes rukkar rinse + water better. Night grinding (bruxism) bhi sensitivity la sakta hai; jaw pain aur morning headache ho to dentist night guard suggest kar sakta hai.
Ghar par kya karein:
- Soft brush + gentle strokes
- Desensitizing toothpaste (kam se kam 3–4 weeks)
- Acidic drinks kam + straw use
- Fluoride mouthwash (night)
Kab doctor zaroori hai?
Agar sensitivity ek hi tooth me sharp ho, chewing pe pain ho, ya sweet pe pain ho—ye cavity/crack ka sign ho sakta hai. Aise cases me filling, fluoride varnish, ya gum treatment best relief deta hai.
