ooth sensitivity during brushing can be caused by various factors. Here are a few possibilities: Toothbrush bristles: If you're using a toothbrush with hard or stiff bristles, it could be causing irritation and sensitivity. Consider switching to a toothbrush with softer bristles, as they are generally gentler on the teeth and gums. Brushing technique: Brushing too vigorously or using excessive force can lead to tooth sensitivity. Make sure to use gentle, circular motions when brushing, and avoid scrubbing back and forth. Toothpaste ingredients: Some toothpaste formulations may contain ingredients that can cause sensitivity in certain individuals. If you recently switched to a new toothpaste, it's possible that it may be contributing to your sensitivity. Consider trying a toothpaste specifically designed for sensitive teeth, as they often have desensitizing agents that can help alleviate sensitivity. Gum recession: If your gums have receded, exposing the tooth roots, it can lead to increased tooth sensitivity. This can be caused by factors such as aggressive brushing, gum disease, or aging. If gum recession is the underlying cause, it's important to address the root cause and consult with your dentist for appropriate treatment options. If you're experiencing tooth sensitivity only while brushing, you may consider the following: Switch to a toothbrush with softer bristles. Use a toothpaste formulated for sensitive teeth. Brush gently using circular motions and avoid applying excessive force. Consider using a desensitizing toothpaste or applying a desensitizing gel to the sensitive areas before brushing. It's important to note that if the sensitivity persists or worsens, it would be best to consult with a dentist.
