I dont wear braces, my teeth are almost straight, but they are very sensative. I brush and floss daily but would like to know what EXTRA things I can do to make my teeth stronger.

If you are having sensitivity, try using a toothpaste made for sensitive teeth such as Sensodyne. Try to also stay away from anything abrasive and this includes lemons,limes, etc.....
If your teeth are extremely sensitive and a toothpaste made for this isn't helping after a few weeks, then consult with your dentist or hygienist. There are other gels and such that can help with this. As far as making them stronger...they won't get stronger, but if you take care of them and you know the drill I am sure, then they should last you the rest of your life. There is nothing that can guarantee no cavities or need for further dental treatment, but prevention is the best medicine.

Your dentist can give you some special toothpaste that has extra flouride in it. Helps with sensitivity as well, I can't remember the name of it though......
