I have sensitive teeth generally and over recent years bits of tooth, filling and whatever else have fallen out. Whenever I get sensitivity I use Sensodyne Rapid Relief, I believe it has a small amount of anaesthetic in (I think my dentist told me that), and if my gums are involved I use Corsodyl mouthwash or salt water.

It usually settles down, if it keeps coming back then I go to the dentist. During first lockdown I had the top of half a tooth fall out and managed to keep it under control with a bit of temporary filing stuff, sensodyne and Corsodyl until the dentists reopened.

I found some Sensodyne rapid relief in B&M yesterday for £2.99, so bought 2 packs as it's quite expensive.

It's bound to feel different because that's where the tongue naturally sits but the important things is to get plaque build up removed by the hygienist..

It doesn’t matter. You know it does go away, and then didn’t bother you again for 10 years.
Don’t start Googling stuff about teeth, it’s a minefield.
