Why Are Your Teeth Sensitive?
Tooth sensitivity occurs when the protective enamel wears thin or gum recession exposes the softer dentine underneath. Our clinicians carry out a thorough assessment to pinpoint the exact cause, then recommend the most effective treatment for lasting relief.
Diagnosis & Assessment
We examine your teeth, gums, and bite to determine whether your sensitivity is caused by enamel erosion, gum recession, tooth decay, a cracked tooth, or clenching and grinding. Accurate diagnosis is the first step to effective treatment.
In-Practice Treatments
Depending on the cause, treatment may include fluoride varnish application, desensitising agents bonded to exposed root surfaces, composite bonding to cover exposed dentine, or adjustments to your bite. All treatments are designed to provide meaningful, lasting relief.
Home Care & Prevention
We will advise on desensitising toothpaste, appropriate brushing technique, and any dietary changes that can help protect your enamel. Where sensitivity is linked to grinding or acid erosion, we will address the underlying cause to prevent recurrence.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before visiting Marlow Dentist. Can't find your answer? Get in touch with our team.
What causes sensitive teeth?
Common causes include enamel erosion, gum recession, tooth decay, cracked teeth, teeth grinding, and acidic diets. A dental examination will identify the specific cause in your case.
Will sensitivity go away on its own?
Sometimes mild sensitivity improves with desensitising toothpaste, but persistent or worsening sensitivity should always be assessed by a dentist to rule out underlying problems.
Can sensitive teeth be a sign of a bigger problem?
Yes. Sensitivity can indicate decay, a crack, gum disease, or an abscess. Early assessment allows us to treat the cause before it progresses.
What toothpaste do you recommend for sensitive teeth?
We typically recommend toothpastes containing potassium nitrate or stannous fluoride. We will advise on the best product for your specific type of sensitivity.
How quickly can you relieve tooth sensitivity?
Many patients experience immediate improvement after in-practice treatments such as fluoride varnish or desensitising agents. The full benefit may develop over a few days.
