Meals, snacks, and even drinks can cause tooth sensitivity, particularly if they are very hot or very cold. Just because sensitivity is common, though, it doesn’t meant that you should ignore it. In many cases, tooth sensitivity exists because of an underlying and undiagnosed dental issue, such as a cavity. To help protect your smile, restorative treatment could likely be in order. Fortunately, for you, modern dental restorations are created with both comfort and confidence in mind. That means that if you do find yourself in need of a filling or crown, your dentist could likely help to restore your smile nearly seamlessly.
Is Your Smile Showing Symptoms of Dental Cavities?
There are a number of potential warning signs that your smile could be in trouble and in need of restorative treatment. For instance, discomfort, discoloration and visible damage like a chip or crack are all indicators that you should probably schedule a dental appointment. Noticeable staining can be indication of either acidic tartar buildup, which can lead to cavities if not promptly removed, while heightened sensitivity is often the result of enamel erosion.
Don’t Delay Restorative Treatment
The sooner you schedule a restorative dental appointment, the more likely restorative measures will be sufficient for helping to improve your comfort and to protect your smile. Fillings, for instance, can usually prevent infections from cavities, and crowns can help to keep chipped or cracked teeth from becoming further damage.
Plus, these fillings and crowns can even help your smile look and feel better, if you choose a seamless option, like a tooth-colored filling or a porcelain dental crown.
