Teeth Sensitivity
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Does anyone else have overly sensitive teeth?

Yes. I use a special toothpaste for the areas of my teeth that have worn down which leads to sensitivity but I'm not sure if that's what you meant completely. Because of anxiety/tension, I'm a teeth grinder which will often leave my jaw aching. I use a retainer made by my dentist and that helps a lot. If I don't, which is too often because I fall asleep, I've been known to break my teeth. I also have TMJ which is a comorbidory of Fibro. Forget dental work. I don't go regularly anymore because of insurance and not being able to drive much but when I have any dental work, it takes 2-3 shots of novacaine! And I usually still have problems with that tooth even afterwards (low pain tolerance).

Yes I do but I hadn,t associated it with Fibro, I can be anxious at times especially trying to excercise and I grind my teeth badly, my dentist made me a shield to wear to help stop to harsh grinding.

Sorry to hear you have problems with painful teeth, but glad to hear I'm not the only one ! My teeth and gums hurt almost every day and there is nothing I can do to soothe the pain, I do hate this Fibro !
