🦷 OUCH! Do your teeth hurt when you enjoy something hot, cold, sweet, or sour? You may be dealing with tooth sensitivity.

Sensitive teeth can happen when enamel wears down or gums recede, exposing the more sensitive parts of your tooth. The good news is that treatments like desensitizing toothpaste, fluoride, and proper dental care can help.

If sensitivity is persistent or painful, schedule a dental visit to find the cause and protect your smile! 😁 Learn more here... https://cle.clinic/4vMmzLR

🦷Tooth decay is a process that happens over time. It starts when plaque, a sticky film of bacteria, builds up on your teeth. These bacteria produce acids that attack the enamel, creating tiny holes that can grow bigger if not treated.

Good oral hygiene and regular dental checkups are key to keeping your smile healthy! 😁✨ Learn more about how tooth decay happens and how to prevent it: https://bit.ly/37vgJVp

⚠️ Watch for: Morning jaw pain, worn/chipped teeth, and temple headaches.
❓ Causes: Stress, anxiety, sleep disorders, or a misaligned bite.
✨ Fixes: A custom nightguard from your dentist is the easiest way to protect your teeth!

Overwhelmed in the toothpaste aisle? You’re not alone! 🪥✨

Some safe bets when choosing are...
-Non-Negotiable: Look for fluoride and the ADA Seal to protect enamel and prevent cavities.
-Sensitive Teeth: Pick formulas that block nerve triggers (and stick with them!).
-Whitening: Great for surface stains like coffee, but don't overdo it if sensitivity kicks in.
-Skip: Charcoal toothpastes—they're too abrasive and can damage enamel.

Usually, it's just a buildup of plaque from skipped days, which can lead to gingivitis. The best fix? Stick to a daily flossing routine, and the bleeding should stop within a few weeks!
