Yes, it is possible to improve oral hygiene even if you have sensitive teeth. Here are some tips:
- Use a toothbrush with soft bristles to avoid further irritation of the teeth and gums.
- Use desensitizing toothpaste specifically formulated for sensitive teeth.
- Brush gently and avoid aggressive scrubbing.
- Consider using a toothbrush with a small head to reach all areas without causing discomfort.
- Use fluoridated mouthwash to strengthen tooth enamel.
- Visit your dentist to determine the cause of tooth sensitivity and for additional recommendations.
