What Is Tooth Sensitivity?
Imagine this: you're savoring a steaming cup of tea or indulging in a scoop of your beloved ice cream when out of nowhere, you're jolted by a sudden and piercing pain in your teeth. This, my friend, is known as tooth sensitivity!
It’s a bothersome dental issue that affects many people due to different causes and factors. It arises when the protective enamel on your teeth is damaged or worn away, leaving the more delicate part of your tooth, called dentin, vulnerable.
Think of enamel as the bodyguard of your teeth, shielding the underlying dentin that resides beneath the gumline. Dentin is a sensitive little thing that contains tiny tubes that connect to the nerve center of your tooth.
Hence, when exposed to hot, cold, or acidic foods or beverages, it's like ringing the alarm system in your mouth, resulting in excruciating pain.
Tooth sensitivity can stem from various factors, typically due to worn tooth enamel or exposed tooth roots. Other culprits can cause tooth discomfort also, such as cavities, chipped or cracked teeth, worn fillings, or gum disease. Unfortunately, identifying the exact cause of tooth sensitivity is not always straightforward.
Why Choose Tooth Sensitivity Treatment in Turkey?
Tooth sensitivity treatment is common and not difficult, but many people prefer to have it in Turkey. The reasons behind this trend include:
Cheap Procedure
Turkey is highly regarded as the cheapest destination for fixing dental problems, including tooth sensitivity. Besides, people can undergo more than dental procedures at the same time and at discounted costs.
Quick Fix
To start with, tooth sensitivity can be an excruciating and debilitating condition, making even simple daily tasks like eating and drinking a painful experience. Seeking treatment for tooth sensitivity in Turkey can improve the quality of life quickly.
Experienced Dentists
To be honest, tooth sensitivity is very common among people. Turkish dentists have great experience treating different forms and types of tooth sensitivity as they deal with numerous cases from different parts of the world.
Preventive Step
Untreated tooth sensitivity can lead to further damage to the teeth and gums, including cavities, gum disease, and even tooth loss. Seeking treatment can prevent these issues from arising and help preserve the overall health of one's teeth and gums.
Multiple Options
In Turkey, there are several tooth sensitivity treatments available, depending on the underlying cause of the sensitivity. These treatments can range from at-home remedies to in-office procedures. Some common options for tooth sensitivity treatment in Turkey include desensitizing toothpaste, fluoride treatments, dental bonding, and root canal therapy.

Types of Tooth Sensitivity Treatment in Turkey
To treat your tooth sensitivity, dentists must first evaluate your condition and identify any underlying causes of your tooth pain.
Depending on the severity and underlying cause of your sensitivity, your dentist might recommend one of several treatment options to alleviate your discomfort.
Desensitizing toothpaste
As a first step in treating your tooth sensitivity, your dentist might recommend desensitizing toothpaste. These kinds of toothpaste work by blocking pain associated with sensitive teeth after several applications. There are a variety of affordable products available over the counter in Turkey.
Dental bonding
Your dentist might suggest treating exposed root surfaces by applying bonding resin to the sensitive areas. This procedure might require a local anesthetic but isn’t very invasive.
Fluoride
Your dentist may also suggest applying fluoride to the sensitive areas of your teeth to strengthen tooth enamel. In some cases, they might recommend using prescription fluoride at home.
Root canal
If your tooth sensitivity is severe and other treatments aren’t effective, your dentist might recommend a root canal procedure (endodontics). This technique is used to treat problems in the tooth's soft core (dental pulp) and is the most successful technique for eliminating tooth sensitivity.
Surgical gum graft
If you have lost gum tissue around your tooth root, your dentist might suggest a surgical gum graft. This can protect exposed roots and reduce sensitivity. The procedure involves taking a small amount of gum tissue from elsewhere in your mouth and attaching it to the affected site.
Cost of Tooth Sensitivity Treatment in Turkey
The cost of tooth sensitivity treatments and procedures in Turkey varies greatly depending on multiple factors, such as the procedures and medication costs and the surgeon’s experience. The treatment can cost between 300-1000 US dollars. If the treatment is part of a package, the cost may become lower.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Yes, sensitive tooth pain can go away on its own, especially if it’s the result of a recent dental procedure such as a filling or root canal. However, if the pain persists, it could indicate an underlying issue such as worn enamel or exposed teeth roots.
You must avoid sugary and acidic drinks, hot or cold foods and drinks, and cold ice cream. Additionally, if you experience sensitivity while brushing your teeth with cold water from the tap, consider switching to warm water instead.
The best treatment for sensitive teeth largely depends on the cause of sensitivity. For some people, fluoride treatments might be the best treatment, while for others, the best treatment might be a root canal.
Not necessarily. Tooth sensitivity can be an indication of different underlying dental problems, including wear and tear, gum recession, or infected tooth.
There is no exact number to give because desensitizing a tooth depends on the causes or factors that originally led to teeth sensitivity, but the cost is usually less than 1000 US dollars.
