Guest guest Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 I had that problem a few years back, I used " Sensodyne Toothpaste " and all is back to normal, it took a while before I felt any changes maybe 3 or 4 months.. good luck humbly dev Help for sensitive teeth? I've always had healthy teeth, but, more and more, they are so sensitive - almost worse than just sensitive. It was only on one side on the bottom, so I've been leaving it be. My dentist says he can't find anything wrong, but, if it bugs me enough, he'll take out the filling (I was loaded with molar fillings as a kid), try to see what's going on, maybe have to do a root canal. Ummmmm - nope! Then the right bottom side became sensitive, and now there's a real zing in the upper right when I chew. So, now I'm at the point where I can't just *leave it be.* I'll talk to my dentist again at my yearly exam in a month if it doesn't worsen. But I'd like to know if there's anything in my power to change this. Thanks, Cindy Cindy Kirchhoff http://livinginrhyme.com . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Thanks, Dev - I hate that stuff, but I may have to use it. Better than major dental work, I think! Were your teeth hugely sensitive? Can you describe more to me?

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 sensodyne works and it doesnt take long.. if it is acute pain,, rub some sensodyne toothpaste on the painful part of the gums and it works a treat. , " Dev " <devsaroop wrote: > > I had that problem a few years back, I used " Sensodyne Toothpaste " and all is back to normal, it took a while before I felt any changes maybe 3 or 4 months.. > good luck > humbly > dev > > > > Help for sensitive teeth? > > > I've always had healthy teeth, but, more and more, they are so > sensitive - almost worse than just sensitive.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 I can't remember what chemical junk was in sensodyne, but it wasn't something I'd put into my mouth. What works for me is brushing with Pascalite clay. Wonderful stuff with a gazillion uses, inside and out. It makes a marvelous face mask, removes stains, good as an intestinal cleanser, as a source of trace minerals......Highly recommended, and very affordable. http://Pascalite.com Ien in the Kootenays http://freegreenliving.com http://wildhealing.net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 Thanks so much, Ien! That sounds good, though I've never heard of Pascalite clay. But I'm definitely going to check it out because, like you, I hate the weird stuff in things like Sensodyne plus I try my best to not purchase from companies that conduct tests on animals. Can you give me any other details on how sensitive your teeth were and how long it took to see some change in the sensitivity? How often did you use the clay?

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 1/4 c white cosmetic clay (plaque removal) 1/4 c vegetable glycerin (creamy consistency) 20 drops tincure of myrrh (for inflammation) 4 drops orange essential oil (for fresh breath) 4 drops clove essentail oil (helps w/ the pain) whisk all ingredients together until smooth. Lasts for 6 mths if kept in a cool, dry and dark place. And use a soft toothbrush :-) Gina , " Ieneke " <ienvan wrote: > > I can't remember what chemical junk was in sensodyne, but it wasn't > something I'd put into my mouth.
