Talk to experienced dentist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
Hello, To give a proper opinion, please mention if the tingling sensation happens when you have anything hot or cold, or while brushing, or eating, or while exposed to air, while grinding your teeth, or otherwise when you do not do anything.
In general, tingling can occur on teeth due to erosion, wear, cracks, decay, poor fillings, or other reasons.
Next Steps
Please consult your regular dentist for a direct examination, proper diagnoses and the necessary treatment.

Tingling to hot or cold food or just even air ? It all could mean you have caries that’s going a little deep or the gums somewhere are receding exposing the more sensitive root areas.
Next Steps
If It’s at specify place or tooth try using desensitiser tooth paste. Apply it on the area and after 5-10 mins wash off . Brushing with that toothpaste will not give adequate contact time. Use it like ointment.
