I think one or two of my upper-left molar(s) are a little bit sensitive to cool water. I found out this while I was rinsing my teeth. I this related to my pulp ?
Another quick question is that can you give suggestions for some of the best oral/dental health products/tools ?
Bests,
Answer Dear Ray: This is related to your pulp. Also related to gingival recession and bruxism. May be tooth decay.
Best dental care products according to me:
1. Crest SpinBrush Pro Extra Soft
2. Colgate Total toothpaste
3. Go-Betweens for brushing in between your teeth
4. Listerine (or the generic store brand) for rinsing after you brush
These are my basics that I recommend to most of my patients. If you have gum disease or tooth decay, I might modify my recommendations. But these will give you a good start. dd
