Talk to Dentist on Tooth Sensitivity Bonding
Asking for Self, Female, 21 years old, karachi
I had a sensitive tooth in my upper jaw and i recently got a bonding/filling to make it less sensitive. The doctor made me examine it after bonding by making me sip water and it wasn't as sensitive as it was. I just wanted to ask is it normal for little sensitivity to still occur? and for how long will it be a little sensitive? secondly what can i do to take care of it?
there could be multiple reasons for sensitivity. kindly visit any nearest dentist for proper diagnosis and treatment

you can use sensitivity toothpaste as a cream on it for a week at nights. I have done many fillings and sensitivity decreased after this remedy

Thankyou so much. I am using sensodyne and it reduces it a lot. I had a hole in my tooth because of which it happened. I also wanted to ask if you wont mind If the tooth is normal apart from sensitivity that also lasts only 2-3 seconds and doesn't hurt is a root canal needed?

Did the Dr recommend scaling for your sensitivity? Also, use Sensodyne for 1 month.
Depends on your condition.. And when did you get your last scaling done. Scaling is recommended every 6 months to one year.

yes slight sensitivity is normal
wait for a few days it'll go away
if it doesn't consult your dentist again and start using sensodyne toothpaste
Little sensitivity is normal. You can wait for a few days. If its not resolving or irritating you too much, its better to visit your dentist for check up

kindly do visit your dentist again and tell him/her the problem you are having. Using sensodyne toothpaste and prodent mouthwash may reduce it as well. And avoid cold and hot eatables till you dont feel better.
