Top Home remedies for sensitive tooth Pin It

Do you feel deep pain when you bite chilled icecream? Or do you feel a deep tinge of sensation in any tooth when you bite any sweet thing like raisins or sugary drinks? If yes, then you are suffering from tooth sensitivity.

Sensitivity occurs when your teeth enamel is worn off exposing the inner dentin layer and nerve roots. These get exposed due to many reasons like:

  • Using hard brush
  • Brushing vigorously for a longer duration
  • Grinding teeth becomes a habit for some and it results in wearing off
  • Gum diseases
  • Not brushing properly leads to bacterial growth in the teeth and harms gums

If it’s unbearable then you should visit the doctor to know the root cause. But if it’s just the beginning and the pain is not too much then you can try the home remedies for sensitive teeth. They are really effective with no side effects at all contrary to the allopathic that doctors would prescribe.

Home remedies for sensitive teeth are:

1. Oil pulling

Oil pulling or swishing the oil into your mouth for a minute or two is the best treatment for any teeth related woes. Coconut oil is widely used for this purpose as it has anti-microbial properties. It improves overall mouth aura.

  • Take some coconut oil into the mouth.
  • Keep it there for 1-2 minutes and swish around gently.
  • Then spit it out and gargle with plain water.

2. Clove Oil

  • Soak a cotton ball into the oil so that it absorbs 2-3 drops of oil.
  • Then dab the cotton ball softly, all over the gums, press it lightly over the pain-affected area.
  • Or else you can also use the whole clove, in case the oil is not available. Place a piece of clove in between the sensitive teeth and leave for a few minutes.

3. Saltwater

Saltwater is used multi purposely for all the mouth related woes. It provides relief temporarily acting as an analgesic.

  • Mix a teaspoon of salt in a glass of warm water.

Onion has anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties which makes it suitable for pain related issues. These properties help kill the bacterias in the mouth, preventing any chances of oral infection. This in turn soothes down the pain due to sensitivity.

  • Also, you can directly chew it in between sensitive teeth.

6. Kaala namak, naushadar, phitkari
