Some everyday habits may harm your teeth. Chewing ice can create tiny cracks in your enamel and brushing immediately after eating (especially acidic foods) can wear enamel down. Mouth breathing may reduce saliva flow, causing gum issues and teeth decay. Nighttime snacking can also lead to cavities if food particles and bacteria are allowed to linger until morning. For more information, call us at +1 408-738-2030.

A gentle mint sensation during brushing is normal, but if you feel a tingling burn, it could be a sign of sensitivity. Ingredients in toothpaste, such as sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), can cause discomfort for some people. If the burning sensation happens consistently, consider switching to a gentler toothpaste.
