mtbcI had mentioned having been prescribed some special toothpaste. Upon comparison with my previous over-the-counter product I discover that the difference appears to be that it contains rather more fluoride. Apparently this helps minerals to be deposited where my tooth enamel is lacking.
Despite this change in toothpaste, after my latest uncomfortable session with the dental hygienist my teeth again remain unpleasantly sensitive a couple of days later. It is not quite as bad as last time so I would guess that they will soon be back to normal. Attending further tooth scaling requires quite some willpower from me to overcome the aversion caused by pain having arisen from previous occasions; the tooth pain somehow feels very bothersome despite not being strong.
