A member asked:
What are the causes of the tooth to be sensitive, with no cavity?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A few things: Gum recession. Fracture. Bite that is off. Trauma causing a non-vital nerve. You didn't say if it was sensitive to thermal stimuli or pressure. Either way have a local dentist take a look.
