Decay (a rotten tooth, caused by insufficient cleaning), or perhaps a part of the tooth has chipped off. Go to a dentist, who will probably give you a filling.

What does having a sensitive tooth mean?

Most of the time they get sensitive because part of the tooth root is showing. Exposed root surface means that hot and cold feelings can reach the nerve of the tooth easier causing sensitivity from the nerve of the tooth. Brushing to hard, in the wrong direction or with whiting toothpaste can cause this sensitivity. This is not to be confused with pain when drinking or eating hot or cold things. Pain could indicate an infection in the nerve of a tooth. And needs to be treated with anti-biotics and root canal treatment or extraction.

Where does the acid that causes tooth decay come from and how can you prevent it?

Bacteria that populate the mouth metabolize simple carbohydrates (sugar) and produce the acid that causes tooth decay. Reducing the bacteria by effective and frequent brushing and flossing can reduce tooth decay. Limiting intake of sugar will also reduce decay. There is also a growing body of research that indicates xylitol as a sugar substitute may also be effective in reducing tooth decay.
