Guest guest Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 Hi everyone, Well, I was sooo excited to get my splint off a week and a half ago, but....the two last upper molars on either side of my mouth are sooo super sensitive, and it's driving me crazy. I first noticed they were so sensitive to touch when I got my splint out (the sensitivity is only a problem when brushing, since my back teeth don't currently meet -- yikes, hopefully my ortho will look after that soon!!!!!). I thought at first " well, hey, I haven't brushed them in 6 weeks, of course they're complaining a little! " but it hasn't gone away or faded despite my best efforts at keeping them clean the past while. Did anyone else have this? I thought it might be the braces at first, but they're only sore on the chewing area of the teeth, and, like I said it hasn't faded. Could it be the nerves 'waking up' after being numb? - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
