Hi. Sensitivity can be due to different reasons. It could be due to harsh brushing in which case you can use a good quality soft or medium bristled toothbrush. Your enamel might be wearing out which can be fixed through proper care. Or if it's due to recurrent cavities you might need to address them with a dentist and also up your home care routine like proper brushing techniques and oral hygiene and improved food habits. It's always good to consult a dentist once every 6months .
