If you've noticed increased sensitivity or changes in your teeth, call +1 205-750-8008 to schedule an appointment and learn how to keep your smile healthy long term.

Feeling parched? Discover why dry mouth is more than just a thirsty feeling. Learn how medications, lifestyle, and health conditions impact saliva and what you can do. Read our guide today.

Do you think you might have tartar? But first, what is tartar? Learn more about how to prevent, and how to remove tartar at Colgate® Oral Care.

Spicy foods don’t directly harm enamel or cause cavities. But they can trigger tooth sensitivity, especially if you have worn enamel or receding gums. The real concern is their link to acid reflux or heartburn, which can expose teeth to stomach acid and may weaken enamel over time. Need advice? Call us at +1 205-750-8008.

Some temporary sensitivity after a dental cleaning is common as plaque and tartar are removed, exposing parts of your teeth. Usually, this sensation fades within a few days.
