The trigeminal nerve (V cranial nerve) is primarily responsible for sensory innervation of the lower gums, teeth, lips, and palate. Specifically, the branches involved in this innervation are the mandibular nerve (V3) for the lower gums and teeth and the maxillary nerve (V2) for the lips and palate.
The trigeminal nerve (cranial nerve V) conducts sensory impulses from the teeth and face. It is the largest cranial nerve and has three main branches (ophthalmic, maxillary, and mandibular) that innervate different regions of the face.
Drinking Coke can make your teeth feel weird because the high sugar and acid content in the soda can weaken the enamel on your teeth, leading to sensitivity or a rough feeling on the surface of your teeth.
Yes, teeth have nerves that are located in the pulp of the tooth. These nerves can sense pain and temperature. If the nerves become damaged or infected, it can lead to toothaches, sensitivity, and other dental problems. Regular dental check-ups can help detect and treat any issues with the nerves in your teeth to maintain good dental health.
The Trigeminal nerve is responsible for sensation in the front two-thirds of the tongue. Specifically, the lingual nerve, which is a branch of the Trigeminal nerve, provides sensory innervation to the tongue.
Often, a person cracks a tooth. Cold and sugar are two items that can cause some surprising pain, as the crack leads down to the root (nerve endings) of the tooth. Normal teeth can be sensitive to cold, as well. My teeth, for instance, are all very healthy, yet if I go for a walk on a cold, cold day and breath through my mouth, my teeth will invariably ache later, worse, and worse, until I have to take an Ibuprofin.

It is not recommended to whiten children's teeth with whitening strips or other commercially available whitening agents. The reason is that children's teeth have relatively large pulp chambers, where the nerve of the tooth resides. Whitening can cause severe tooth sensitivity in people with large pulp chambers. Whitening is not recommended before the person is in their early twenty's or at least late teens. By then the pulp chambers have shrunk and sensitivity becomes less likely. Even then, sensitivity can be an issue. Fortunately, if sensitivity becomes an issue it usually resolves itself by stopping the whitening process.
Most forms of teeth whitening make teeth more sensitive to temperature, using some whitening strips and whitening tooth paste can not affect your sensitivity, but most harsher forms of whitening will affect tooth sensitivity.
Teeth have four parts the outer layer is "the enamel it is the hardest substance of the body" then underneath that is called the dentin which is makes up most of the tooth under that there is the soft center the soft center and holds the nerve endings and blood vessels the cementum covers the roots.
No the elephant tusk is mostly cartilage so it doesn't hurt The tusk of an elephant has no nerve endings so there is no pain when they cut them off. Just as it does not hurt a horse to have their teeth ground annually.
The main nerve that goes to the teeth is called the trigeminal nerve. It is responsible for transmitting sensory information from the teeth and surrounding tissues to the brain, allowing us to perceive sensations like temperature, pressure, and pain in the teeth.
Rabbit teeth never stop growing, sort of like our fingernails. If a rabbit doesn't chew enough their teeth will not grind down and the teeth will grow longer than needed...sometimes very long ei. three inches. Rabbit's teeth have no nerve endings so if carefully done one could snip the teeth with clippers (you should probably get a vet to do this)
Yes, a nightguard can cause teeth sensitivity if it is new or if it is not fitted properly. Some sensitivity with a new guard you are not used to can cause increased sensitivity, but if it causes too much of an issue later on, you should speak with a dentist about getting a new molded guard made.
If you get your teeth whitened you are risking losing some sensitivity in your teeth. It is also a risk if you are pregnant.
There are many different factors that affect a person tooth sensitivity. For the most part, oral hygiene is important to keep one's teeth from being overly sensitive.

The electric eel can produce a jolt of electricity in a similar manner to how a human can cause an electromyleograph to record a signal except the eel's muscles are arranged in segments that function as photovoltaic cells in series. They can produce 600 volts of current. See links.
