Sensitive Teeth (3 of 3) TREATMENT
Depending on the diagnosis, your dentist may recommend one or more of the following treatments to relieve the symptoms of sensitive teeth:

• A soft-bristle toothbrush to protect gums.
• A special toothpaste for sensitive teeth that can either block access to the nerve or insulate the nerve itself.
• A fluoride rinse or gel for sensitive teeth, prescribed by your dentist.

A sensitivity toothpaste usually eases pain in about two to four weeks.

Be sure to follow your dental professional's special home care instructions for regular use to keep pain from returning.
