Empowering Smiles with Specialized Care: La Jolla's Trusted Endodontics

Seeking Relief for Tooth Sensitivity ?

Tooth sensitivity is a common issue, but if you have specific teeth that are excessively sensitive, it may indicate inflammation of the tooth's nerve system. Hypersensitivity to temperature changes, accompanied by lingering pain, is a sign of nerve inflammation. Without proper treatment, this inflammation can lead to a more severe infection. Root canal treatment is the optimal solution to address sensitivity and prevent future complications.


If you're seeking relief from advanced tooth sensitivity, our experienced team at La Jolla Microdontics is here to help. Contact our office today for an appointment. No referral is required. Let us provide the specialized care you need to alleviate discomfort and preserve your tooth.

What Causes Tooth Sensitivity?

Tooth sensitivity can manifest as either generalized or localized discomfort.


Generalized tooth sensitivity often arises from teeth bleaching procedures. In such cases, we suggest using desensitizing toothpaste like Sensodyne to alleviate the sensitivity.


Localized tooth sensitivity can stem from various issues, such as:


  • Dental decay or cavities
  • Fractured or cracked teeth
  • Worn tooth enamel or exposed dentin
  • Gum recession causing root exposure
  • Dental infections or abscesses



If you experience localized tooth sensitivity, it's important to seek professional dental care to identify the underlying cause and provide appropriate treatment. Contact our office today for a comprehensive evaluation and personalized care to address your specific tooth sensitivity concerns.
