Hello, this is Shiry and thanks for coming by reading my blog. Since my last cleaning and ortho appointment I have began to experience some sensitivity. I never had this before, but now for some reason my teeth are sensitive to water only when I am using my WaterPik.
Now when I am eating cold or drinking cold beverages, no issue. Even when I had my teeth cleaned I felt some sensitivity. My ortho told me to use it once or twice a week, but now now hygienist says to use it every night.
Well amazingly after a week of use I no longer feel the sensitivity I was having. I use a very small amount and follow the directions below. Thanks for reading!!
What does the fluoride do?
Sodium fluoride makes teeth more resistant to decay and bacteria that cause cavities. This medication is used to prevent cavities.
Directions:
- This is best used once daily just before bedtime instead of your regular toothpaste or as directed by your healthcare professional.
- Apply a thin ribbon of medicine to a toothbrush and brush thoroughly for 2 minutes or as directed.
- Spit out the medication after use. Do not swallow. Children should rinse their mouth thoroughly right away. For adults, do not rinse your mouth, eat, or drink for at least 30 minutes after use to get the best results...
