A bite of ice cream. A sip of an ice-cold soda. If you have sensitive teeth, these everyday cold foods and drinks can unexpectedly trigger a jolt of pain fast.
That’s because, over time, your protective layer of tooth enamel can wear down, exposing the soft, inner part of your tooth called dentine. Certain triggers—including cold foods, drinks, or even a burst of air—can cause a short, sharp pain, also known as tooth sensitivity. Use a tooth paste indicated for sensitivity… a higher the concentration of fluoride is better.
