Ouch! Why is there a sharp pain in your teeth when you inhale? That sudden sting when cold winter air hits your teeth isn’t common but a sign of sensitivity. Sometimes it’s called a “zinger.” What causes them? Zingers are often caused by enamel erosion, gum recession or tiny cracks in teeth. What should I do? If you’re feeling similar pain, try sensitivity toothpaste, gentler brushing and visit your dentist if it persists. #dentalhealth #toothpain #winterhealth #coldseason
