Your mouth changes as you
age. The nerves in your
teeth can
become smaller, making your
teeth less sensitive to cavities or other problems. If you don't
get regular
dental exams, this in
turn can lead to these problems not
being diagnosed until it is too late.Anyone at any
age can have
sensitive teeth. But research shows that the problem mostly affects adults between
ages 20 and 50, with
most cases developing between the
ages of 30 and 40. This is often attributed to the fact that adults are
more likely to have gum recession, a leading cause of
sensitive teeth.
