Why are my teeth so sensitive?

Gum disease is a very common problem we see in patients.  Some patients have mild gingivitis that can be corrected with proper brushing and flossing.  Others experience more complicated problems such as gum recession and bone loss.  It is very common with gum recession to experience mild to severe tooth sensitivity.

 Mild gum recession:

Even with mild gum recession the sensitivity can be very bothersome

Severe gum recession:

Most patients are not aware that they have gum recession.  If you are experiencing sensitivity on your teeth its very important to schedule an appointment to get your teeth and gums evaluated.  Persona Dental 320-251-2972.
