Sensitive Teeth; Taste Buds Chaned?

[BirdAlert 29]

I don't know where to post this, so this looks like a good place.

I'm 3 weeks post op and having some issue with my teeth! They are so sensitive! Any ideas?

Plus, I think my taste has changed! I seem to need to stick with bland foods so far. Tried a friends squash Soup, and that's as far as I got was a bite.

Before surgery, I never met a food I didn't like. WIERD!

I'm cooking, and it all looks & smells good, but I also don't want any of it.

Anyone else?

I had extensive dental work done and found that my tastes changed. I also had sensitivity for several months. I am still preop for gastric bypass. My friends who are postop also report changed preferences for food. I am expecting something similar to happen after my surgery.

It's an interesting process, that's for sure. Nothing compares!

I have switched to sensodyne toothpaste - more expensive but effective.

Yea, I finally got some too.. Slowly helping. Wondering if I should see my dentist. Maybe so.
