If you have ever experienced sudden, acute pain when you consume something hot or cold, this may be a sign that your teeth are too sensitive. Dental sensitivity may occur for a variety of reasons, one of which is the weakening of dental enamel. Since brushing your teeth immediately after eating certain foods may increase dental sensitivity, it is preferable to avoid this unpleasant side effect and bruise your teeth before eating.
You brush too hard if your gums start to retract.
Each of our teeth is protected by the enamel, which can be severely damaged by excessive brushing. And by damaging the enamel, our gums can begin to retract, exposing the roots of our teeth to great danger. If your teeth reach this stage, you may need to add fillings, root canals or even extract teeth that are no longer healthy. According to dentists, about 10-20% of the world’s population has damaged their gums due to excessive brushing.
