For some reason, I seem to have more tooth sensitivity than I did when I was a kid. I think it’s because my teeth are older now, and I don’t have as many gaps or cavities anymore. The only problem is that my teeth don’t get as much use as they did when I was young.
Well, that’s not a bad point.
Actually, I think its more to do with my diet than the teeth. I used to be pretty active, and I used to get lots of cavities and gum disease. I am, however, a vegan now. So if I eat something that contains cow’s milk, I end up with a lot more tooth sensitivity.
When I’m on vacation, I am one of those people who only uses their mouth for eating and drinking. As a result, I have more teeth than I’m used to.
I also use my teeth as a sort of bathroom scale. I use them to tell me my weight, I use them to measure how much I have been drinking, and I use them to measure how much I am drinking. There’s a big difference between drinking a bottle of water and drinking 1 cup of water.
I think the best way to deal with tooth sensitivity is to avoid liquids with a lot of sugar (e.g. milk and milk products, orange juice, soda, and tea), or drinks with a lot of sugar. I also avoid foods that contain sugar (fruits, nuts, and sweet drinks), and foods that have other sugar substitutes, like stevia, honey, and Splenda.
I prefer drinks such as water and juices as they are more acidic and don’t contain any sugar.
I am the kind of person that, when it comes to certain foods, can’t tell what to avoid. I can’t tell what to avoid when it comes to fruit. And I can’t tell what to avoid when it comes to some other foods like milk and milk products, orange juice, and soda. So I just avoid these foods.
Tooth sensitivity is a common problem in many people, especially those with immune issues. Some of the following tips may help alleviate this problem, and some may not.
