My teeth get extremely sensitive and hurt after i leave work. i'm in the construction field and work outdoors, but this only happens after work.

Sensitive teeth: exactly what are you doing during work? Are you clenching your teeth? Biting on objects? Exposed to chemicals? A dentist can help you find out what is causing your sensitivity.

Vague Symptoms: Teeth hurt in what way? Hot? Cold? When you bite down? When you lie down? On your way home? Hard to diagnose your problem without these answers and an exam. Please see a local dentist.

Diurnal bruxism: is closely related to stress at your work place. Most people have experienced teeth clenching during the day, but when this clenching becomes chronic and starts to cause pain that it becomes a problem. See your dentist for mouthguard fabrication and see a pain psychologist for CBT.

See DDS: See your dentist to rule out all sequeli, such as decay, periodontal disease and possible sensitivity from recession. Once the dentist identifies the problem, it can be addressed if needed.

Clenching: You may be clenching during work, and after work, when your jaw muscles relax, they feel sore. Talk to your Dentist, an Occlusal Orthotic to wear at work may be helpful.
