I stopped smoking on the 31/3/2016 after being a smoker for 14 or so years. My teeth are really sensitive...it is nice to actually taste food a bit better but a pain to eat. I wonder if this will fade or smoking has number my mouth so much that I have ignored going to the dentist for so long....

Welcome Untitled 👏👏👏👏

My teeth were super sensitive and ached when I quit and they're getting less sensitive now.   All these miserable symptoms go away... Sometimes earlier than expected ... Hang in there👍🏻

Best wishes from 🇨🇦

This is a common problem, when people quit.   A tip from my  dentist was rub a little fluoride toothpaste  on the gum line. Apply with fingertip.  it does help with sensitivity. xx
