Teeth pain when drinking cold water?

Question

There is pain on one side of upper and lower teeth when cold water is being drunk. There is no lack of hygienic care of teeth like brushing twice daily. I don't think it is a sign of gingivitis. What could be the problem? Greatly appreciate if you could advice.

Answer 1

Everyone's teeth are sensitive to a certain extent. I don't think you should be worried. Using a toothpaste for sensitive teeth is great advice. If this continues for at least a week, consider this:

Usually tooth sensitivity (dentin hypersensitivity) presents as temporary tooth discomfort or pain after eating cold food, drinking cold liquids, or breathing cold air. ( If the pain is very high in intensity and prolonged, see your dentist because this may be a sign of an unhealthy tooth nerve )The key to preventing tooth sensitivity is to keep the gums from receding. Reducing the pressure we use to brush our teeth helps tremendously. The problem with this is that our tooth brushing is an unconsciously ingrained habit reinforced after decades of brushing and therefore nearly impossible to change. I advise people to use an advanced electric toothbrushes (plaque remover) like the Braun 3D Excel or Sonicare. These toothbrushes feature pressure sensors that stop the brush when you apply too much pressure

Answer 3

Is the sensitivity on the opposite side of your dominant hand? Alot of people who are fastidious about their oral hygiene tend to over brush on one side of the mouth. They brush too hard on one side as they can get the whole arm movement happening. This leads to abrasion of the teeth near the margins of the gum. This can be accelerated by brushing after having acidic drinks or a diet high in acidic drinks. Try sensodyne as other people have suggested or go see a dentist for consultation. Also use a soft bristle brush and control the pressure that you brush with.
