Acidic Diet
Lastly, if you have eliminated dental care products with harsh chemicals and have changed out your toothbrush for something with softer bristles and still feel tooth sensitivity, it is time to consider your diet. Mentioned previously, acidic foods and beverages play a major role in tooth sensitivity.
Some acidic items include tomatoes, oranges, red wine, yogurt, soda, and the like. White bread, margarine, potato chips, french fries and other high fat, ultra-processed foods are also considered acidic, because they are high in simple carbohydrates that break down into sugar when digested. Since digestion begins in the mouth, such items are bound to affect your gums and tooth enamel.
