If you have sensitive teeth, the first thing you need to do is go to the dentist, who will help determine the cause of the sensitivity.

Proper care for sensitive teeth includes the following points.

1. Brush your teeth twice a day for 2 minutes, spending 30 seconds on each surface of the upper and lower jaws.

2. When choosing a toothbrush, give preference to products with medium hardness or soft (for high sensitivity).

3. Toothpaste should also be specially formulated for sensitive teeth.
