You're not alone!
If you have sensitive teeth, you are not alone. A recent independent study involving a nationally representative sample of the Canadian population highlighted that the prevalence of dentin hypersensitivity among adults aged 18 to 64 is approximately 30%. So if you have sensitive teeth, it's nothing to be embarrassed about.
Dentin hypersensitivity is defined as a "short, sharp pain arising from exposed dentin in response to stimuli - typically thermal, evaporative, tactile, osmotic or chemical - and which cannot be ascribed to any other form of dental defect or pathology."
