In the dental clinic, patients often ask us “What is tooth sensitivity ?”, or “Why does it happen”?
Tooth sensitivity is a multifactorial problem and has a multifold treatment approach. The underlying reason for the sensitivity is always a transmission of external stimulus to the nerve inside the tooth. Sensitivity to cold usually precedes tooth sensitivity to hot food. It is very important to understand the possible medical reasons for tooth sensitivity as well. In patients who have acid reflux problems, the enamel can be seen to be more worn out. The reason for sudden or extreme tooth sensitivity is usually a result of cumulative damage.
