OK, I'm new here so first of all, hello everyone :)
I was wondering if anyone had any ideas that may help me out. I have very sensetive teeth and it's been bothering me for a while now. I figure that there must be something that I can take to make it less of a pain whenever I eat or drink anything that's too hot or cold. As it stands I have a very aqute problem in that if I eat/drink anything that's not basically body temperature it causes alot of discomfort which, as I'm sure you can imagine, is really upsetting my taste buds. I never used to be like this but for the past nine months or so, it seems to have got alot worse and I'm actually really worried about it now. I've tried talking to dentist (and my doctor) who both offered me no more advice than to try a sensetive teeth toothpaste. There HAS TO BE something else that would really help.
Any ideas?
Many thanks,
Marcus.

Did you try the sensitive teeth toothpaste? It worked for me.

OK, sorry, just to add a bit more to what I've already said...
I have been trying Sensodyne toothpaste for a while before I went to the Dentist/Doctor. Also, if it helps at all, the pain, whilst accross all my teeth, seems to be worse at the back teeth.

I wish I had another solution. My sensitive tooth problem comes and goes. Sometimes it takes an entire tube of the sensitive toothpaste, that is, quite a long time, to get it under control. I also found a mouthwash that's supposed to strengthen your tooth enamel. It's called "Act", but I don't know if it's available outside the U.S. I don't know if that's contributed to keeping it under control, but it can't hurt.
Take care,
Emily

Oddly, I've been looking at quite alot of different products that are intended to help to rebuild teeth, I think that 'Act' may have been one of them. I seem to be swaying towards natural products. The most appealing one at the moment was one called 'Xylotene' but I'm still reasearching others for now. There seem to be quite a few to choose from, but that one seems to back up it's claims with alot of examples and info about the way it works. But thank you for the extra input, I really appreciate it.
