I have sensitive teeth?

Posted on April 24, 2011

My teeth have always been sensitive to cold, but lately they've started hurting from sugar, too. I've been to the dentist and ruled out cavities, so it's really just the way my teeth are.

I know there are special toothpastes and fluoride rinses that can help me, but here is the problem: I am allergic to mint. I have to use kids' toothpaste and mouthwash (although I am careful to use ADA-approved products with my dentist's guidance), so I can't really use a mint-flavored desensitizing toothpaste.

Are there any desensitizing treatments that have no mint in them? Or am I stuck with some sort of surgery?
