Hi,
May be your teeth enamel is wearing off... if you are brushing and chewing hard them stop doing so. Brush softly and gently in a circular manner twice daily. If you are chewing hard and eating hard food like non veg bone pieces, it is time you change your habits. Also we need to physically examine how much enamel has worn out so that we can plan the right treatment. For now, you can use Sensodyne Repair and Protect toothpaste. This forms Hydroxyapatite crystal on your teeth which protects the Dentine and which reduces sensitivity. Apply this paste on affected tooth, leave it for 10-15 min and gently massage and let the tooth absorb this and gently brush. Repeat this 3 times daily.
But make sure to visit a dentist for a thorough evaluation.
Cheers
