What is tooth sensitivity? Tooth sensitivity occurs when the enamel that protects our teeth gets thinner or when gum recession occurs, exposing the underlying surface, the dentin, thus reducing the protection to the root and nerves. When such teeth come in contact with something hot, cold, or sweet, sensations are carried directly to the nerves causing painful sensitivity.
- Causes for enamel wear and tear: Aggressive brushing, Tooth grinding, Teeth erosion
- Causes for gum erosion: Aggressive brushing, aging, gum disease
