See a dentist: There are many reasons that you could be having sensitivity, all of which can be addressed by seeing your dentist. You might have cavities, you might have gum disease, you might be grinding, you could be having widsom tooth problems, you might have recession or erosion.....Please call your dental office for an appointment today.

Bruxism: With the added stress of high school - both academic as well as social - it's possible that you have developed the habit of clenching/grinding of ur teeth. It's a very damaging habit but unfortunately v. Common. All the extra forces being applied to ur teeth by keeping them in contact can make them sensitive. The rule is "lips together, teeth apart". Good luck!

It is time...: Call your dentist and make an appointment. There are many reasons your teeth could be sensitive. While some problems are quite challenging, others are very simple. Regardless of the cause the solution will be easier, cheaper, and less painful if you do it sooner. Good luck!

Need treatment: Sensitivity from cold or hot? Sweets or just when brushing your teeth, many reasons can cause sensitivitiessensi such as untreated cavities, receding gums and erosions from acids. Old root canals and grinding teeth can cause some sensitivity as well, but sensitivity will not go away by itself, you need to get a clinical examination with x-rays.
