Hello lybrate-user,
When we humans feels cold ,we people put on some clothes to get ourselves warmer. So it is as simple as in case of our teeth ,they need to protect by applying some anti-sensitivity gel or paste.(Sensigel paste) you have to apply digitally by fingers over your complaining area at least for 10-10-10 mins duration consecutively as there is saliva which will wash out the paste ,so you have to apply it repeatedly .Even after full duration you should not take any food or drinking material for another 10-15 mins, that's how it may work.
