It's not that they don't want to help you. It's that they are both telling you that ultimately you will be spending the money for the procedure and it won't help your issue. That is good dentistry, to tell a patient that.
Have you tried the toothpaste for sensitive teeth and are you using it every day |
yes actually I tried sensodyne hoping it would help with the back molar even before the sensitive teeth at front happened and I think it was what caused my front tooth to chip after it has already been weak coz the sensodyne is so abrasive and super minty too, I used it for 2 days and stopped right away, it caused my molar tooth to hurt too. Recently I tried the Colgate repair and protect with arginine but it doesn't seem to help, a few of my adjacent teeth feel bad now too.
I heard about crest sensi strips but I'm scared it will make it worse and its not readily avail. where I'm at, I have to source it online somehow. Or are there sealants or bonding material we can buy somewhere?
What I don't understand is some people get their teeth shaven down quite a lot for veneers etc. but don't feel any sensitivity or hv problems?
