Hi,
I have had extremely sensitive teeth for about as long as I've had back spasms, which is 6 years. Dentist cannot find any reason for it. Enamel on teeth is fine, gums aren't recessed, etc. No topical sensitivity treatments helped. I am wondering if anyone knows if this could be a TMS disorder? I am not referring to TMJ here, just extreme teeth sensitivity (zinging sensation when biting into hard things like crackers, crusty bread, some other foods that are crunchy). Just a shot in the dark but nonetheless I figured it's worth asking about.
Thanks

Yes it definitely could be TMS. I had/have it sometimes as part of a TMJ syndrome.

Yip, I have some pain in my teeth that happens exactly how you are describing it and it comes and goes if I don't treat it with special toothpaste.

The pain from my 2 teeth which have receded gums around them is more predictable however and will react consistently to cold air, sweet food etc.

My experience is exactly the same as Tunza's. Just another bizzare TMS symptom probably.
