Brush your teeth last thing at night and at least one other time during the day, with fluoride toothpaste. Consider using toothpaste specially designed for sensitive teeth. Use small, circular movements with a soft- to medium-bristled brush. Try to avoid brushing your teeth from side to side.
Change your toothbrush every two to three months, or sooner if it becomes worn.
Don't brush straight after eating - some foods and drinks can soften the enamel of your teeth, so leave it for at least an hour before you brush.
Have sugary foods, and fizzy and acidic drinks, less often. Try to have them just at mealtimes.
If you grind your teeth, talk to your dental team about whether you should have a mouthguard made, to wear at night.
If you are thinking about having your teeth bleached, discuss sensitivity with your dental team before starting treatment.
