This is normal for most people and usually a toothpaste such as Sensodyne for sensitive teeth will take care of the problem. It usually take about two weeks of consecutive use for you to start to feel some relief. If your problem is due to gum recession from over brushing or from having perio surgery it may not help. You might want to ask your dentist for a treatment to desensitize your teeth, it's like a varnish that coats the areas, or fluoride treatment to help seal the tubules. If the problem is a change in your diet, caused by a higher content of acidic foods from fruits or juices, then it usually requires you just to reduce or eliminate these foods for awhile. Hope I've been of some help.

It's fairly common for people to have cold sensitivity once in a while. It could have to do with your sinuses being a little bit inflamed. Parts of our sinus cavities sit very close to the roots of our top teeth. When our sinuses are inflamed they can touch the roots and make them more sensitive to temperature changes. If it keeps it up for more than a week, you may want to see your dentist. Especially if it is isolated to one or two teeth, as this may indicate an abcess. Good luck.

Mine used to do the same thing. When you're watching TV or something, just massage your gums with a toothbrush for 20 minutes. After several weeks, your gums will be strong again and your teeth won't hurt!

It could be a sign of small cavities on teeth or on your roots,
you need to seek out a dentist right a way before you get gingivitis or all kinds of health problems. Something so simple could cause headaches, heart attack, kidney failure, and many more things. Your teeth are close to your brain and all that poison circulating in your system is bad news. I hope this helps you. Take care.

Yes for people with senstive teeth like me, see your dentist to make surd, and in the main time go to your druggist and ask him for a good teeth desensitizer tooth paste!!

My daughter has the same thing . You have sensitive teeth. I got her toothpaste for that and she doesn't have the problem anymore. Try that and see if it helps. Good Luck.
