Tooth Sensitivity Doesn’t Have to Last - Relief Is Here

Hi Friends,

Dr. Christina Kraft here. Tooth sensitivity is one of the most common and frustrating complaints I hear. Many people try special toothpastes or coatings for months or years and are left wondering why the relief is minimal or does not last.

Tooth sensitivity is not just about “thin enamel.” It is usually a sign that the protective layers of the tooth have been disrupted by gum recession, acid exposure, or wear. When this happens, tiny channels in the tooth, called dentinal tubules, allow cold, air, and pressure to reach the nerve, creating sharp pain.

Most sensitivity pastes and coatings work by temporarily blocking these channels or dulling nerve signals. They do not address bacteria or inflammation inside the tooth, which is why relief is often partial, slow, or short-lived.

This is where things finally change.

Dental ozone is a powerful integrative treatment that works differently from anything most patients have tried before.While today we’re focusing on sensitivity, ozone is a versatile therapy that supports overall tooth and gum health in several ways.

Ozone is a highly energized form of oxygen that penetrates dentinal tubules where pastes cannot reach. It helps reduce bacteria and inflammation inside the tooth and encourages mineral deposition that helps seal the tubules, limiting ongoing nerve stimulation.

What many patients notice is faster and more complete relief, sometimes immediately, without injections, drilling, or numbing. Because the tubules are sealed rather than just coated, the results can be permanent.

If you have been frustrated by treatments that never quite solve sensitivity, your teeth may need more than a surface solution.

I am now offering in-office dental ozone therapy for tooth sensitivity at Casas Adobes Dentistry in Tucson, Arizona. To schedule an appointment or learn more, call us at (520) 297-2297.

You do not have to just live with sensitive teeth.

Be Well,

Christina Kraft DMD
