Hydrogen Peroxide Tooth Sensitivity
On tooth sensitivity caused by hydrogen peroxide
Nowadays, hydrogen peroxide is used for teeth cleaning, but it often causes tooth sensitivity.
Hydrogen peroxide is highly oxidizing. When it comes into contact with teeth, or damages tooth enamel, it causes exposure to the dentin tubules. There are nerve endings in the dentin tubules, and external stimuli can easily pass into the pulp along this way, causing sensitivity. Common stimuli, such as hot and cold, sweet and sour, can cause tooth soreness and discomfort when touched.
In order to reduce this harm, check the condition of the teeth before use. If it is already sensitive, it should be used with caution. When using, control its concentration and duration, and do not touch the teeth for too long. And rinse with water after use to remove residues.
Doctors should understand this principle, inform patients of the advantages and disadvantages, and use it wisely, which can not only benefit from tooth cleaning, but also avoid the pain of tooth sensitivity. All actions should be weighed against the advantages and disadvantages, and careful action can be taken to ensure dental health.
