ANATOMICALLY, THE TEETH ARE NOT RELATED T THE SINUSES AT ALL. SOMETIMES WITH AB INFECTION OF THE SINUSES THERE IS PAIN ON THE UPPER TEETH. THIS US MOST COMMON WHEN YOU BITE YOUR TEETH. SENSITIVE TEETH (USUALLY TO COLD AND/OR SWEETS) USUALLY OCCURS WHEN THERE HAS BEEN GUM RECESSION. BRUSHING TOO HARD WITH MEDIUM OR FIRM BRISTLES OFTEN CAUSES TOOTH SENSITIVITY.
