SUMMARY
Tooth sensitivity refers to dental pain caused by sensory stimuli due to the exposed dentine tubules open. Most often it occurs when in contact with cold air, while consuming hot, cold, sweet or acidic food or drink. It is important to determine the cause and choose the appropriate way to counteract tooth sensitivity.
