Scientists have explained why eating or drinking cold causes toothache and sensitivity to colds?
Scientists have recently explained the cause of a toothache and said that the cells in the teeth called "Odontoblast" feel the pain.
Scientists say the 'Odontoblast' sends a message to the brain by feeling the pain after eating or drinking cold food.
Experts say that when there is swelling, irritation, or itching in the teeth, a cell called 'Odontoblast' causes pain when we eat cold food. These same cells then transmit the "transient receptor protein" (TRPC) system that connects the teeth to the brain, reporting pain while eating or drinking cold foods, eventually reaching the human brain, and then the person feels pain.
The study was compiled by four experts and reviewed surveys and research reports by experts from several countries in the United States and Europe.
Experts say that many new indications to treat teeth will prove helpful in treating dental diseases after this revelation.
