Pain on eating or drinking food is early signs f sensitivity in teeth which might lead to continuous pain.Use of anti-sensitivity tooth paste such as sensdyne may be helpful in early stages but in advanced stages it fails to work.All you need to do is to visit a dentist so that the cause of sensitivity can be diagnosed.Sometimes sensitivity can be because of one tooth or may be due to number of teeth.
