most probably u may have gum recession
bcoz calculie deposition is also a factor for recession
its cause your gum line shifted upward leads to naked tooth root
in most of case it is major reason of tooth sensitivity
better to visit your nearby dental surgeon

Get yourself checked by the dentist As soon as possible. U will require a scaling once it is done the situation should improve. If you don't have time to visit the dentist apply (SHY N M) paste over first and second molar where u experience sensitivity. Leave it for 5mins and drink water. If the condition doesn't improve visit the nearest dentist.
