Dental sensitivity
As the gums recede, tooth sensitivity to temperature changes appears.
At Clínica Pronova we apply techniques so that chewing or drinking is no longer a problem.
- Correct dietary habits by eliminating acidic, sweet or hot/cold drinks until tooth sensitivity is corrected.
- Teaching of tooth brushing techniques especially aimed at eliminating tooth sensitivity.
- Prescription of medications designed to reduce tooth sensitivity, such as toothpastes, gels or specialized mouthwashes.
- Application of professional products (fluorides, resins, etc….) on the root surface with the intention of sealing the microtubules that expose the nerve endings inside the tooth.
- Application of the laser on the tooth surface.
- Treatment of periodontitis, with the objective of stabilizing gum loss.
- Treatment of bruxism by means of an occlusal splint or the elimination of traumatic dental contacts.
- Treatment of caries or dental fracture.
Real clinical cases
Before and after treatment
The present case report is of a 45-year-old female patient undergoing periodontal maintenance. Part 36 had a bone defect and a periodontal pocket 10 mm deep. Conventional periodontal disinfection treatment did not solve this problem and occasionally the gingiva would fester. We proposed to treat it by microsurgery with the help of a biomaterial and we regenerated the lost bone around this molar.
