Cervical sensitivity of the tooth

Cervical sensitivity of the tooth to cold and sweets especially, can be caused by agressive brushing of the teeth, gingival recession and toothbrushing after consuming acidic beverages, which tend to remove the superficial layer of the enamel, causing acidic erosion. The treatment consists – depending on the presence or absence of erosion caveins – cervical aesthetic filling, using a dentin tubuli-closing agent or using laser to desensitize the tooth.
